You can buy a key head for $140 or so and a key blank for $20 from Sunset Porsche in Oregon. Then, the dealer will charge you one hour of labor to program it and it will have that magical barcode tag on it.

Then you'll have one good working key and two backup keys in case you lose it.

Buy your wife a new washer while you're at it and she won't gripe about the one key as much.

This was one of my first shocking thing to learn about Porsche ownership... not the last for sure.

Welcome to our expensive little world. These cars may be the "budget" Porsche in the lineup and reasonably priced when used, but you better get used to expensive repairs. It goes with the brand, not the model.
