[Idaho Red Rocket 3]

Although the forum has been somewhat scammed by the OP, he has a point about a low mileage car getting fixed at Porsche's expense. His question is valid weather or not he is the original owner or he purchased it already toasted. I think Porsche needs to stand behind ALL of their cars that have IMS failure provided the car is under 100K miles and they can satisfy themselves the car has not been abused.

Example:Triumph motorcycle has a problem with their Rocket III models. They have been standing behind many of the repairs and subsequent upgrades and rebuilds of the model even for bikes years out of warranty no matter if you are first or second owner. I purchased mine new in 2007 and purchased a 6 year extended warranty just in case. So far mine is OK. The problem is hit or miss just like the IMS.

You would think the new price of a Porsche should easily pay for a 10 year/100,000 mile warranty. If a cheap $15,000 Hyundai can come with it, why can't a $50,000 to $100,000 plus Porsche ????
