Another option to solve the peace of mind about the 987.1's would be just keep your current car. Buy an extended warranty from your Porsche dealer for xxxxxx miles to x years. I made my dealer give me in writing that if a IMS failure occurred regardless of why, it was a covered item. And a 4 year Porsche extended warranty on my 987 with only 40k miles on the original engine was only $3500.00. For me, the peace of mind is worth it when I compare the cost of a $3500.00 investment to protect a $20,000.00 engine replacement wonder IF the IMS issue will pop up. Plus with the warranty, items like the water pump, oil issues due to the RMS, and any other potential issue is covered. And I have a zero deductible if my car is roll-backed to my dealer from anywhere in the nation. So I drive it whenever, where-ever, and as easy or hard as I like. By the time the warranty comes close to ending, I will most likely upgrade to another car....................so I am good.
