I here you dude, I love my Boxster but the motors in are cars SUCK,and God forbid if you criticize Porsche on this board for the M96 motor that thay have been using in there cars for over 10 years.
If you do criticize or complain about it, some members on here will tell you to man up or do'nt cry like a little girl or better yet, shut up and just sell your car on Ebay or craigslist.
I Wonder how many of them will pay the $17,000.00 to have your car fixed for you with the same piece of JUNK motor with more then 20 desingn flaws in it?
I am afaid you have 4 choices,
1, Sell the car as is.
2, have dealer put new/re-built motorfor big $$$.
3,have Indy shop put a used one in.
4, send it to Jake at;Flat 6 Innovations and have them put one of their motors in it and drive it forever.
Sorry about your motor blowing,but all M96 motors will eventually suffer the same fate as yours.
Good luck dude.
