This can and will be perceived by some as a company that could give a rats rear about its customers. As was mentioned below, this is not an alternator or head gasket, etc... this is a CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE that seems to be traced to a design flaw.

Imagine if the buying public knew before hand, that the car they were about to buy had the potential to implode regardless of how they treated or serviced it? What if they knew that unless under warranty, Porsche would tell them to go pound sand and deal with the $12k-$15k repair bill on their own despite it being a design flaw?

BTW - Does anyone have the last 3 years of Porsche's profit, net revenue and number of vehicles sold? I would be curious to see how fast their products are moving off the lot?

Disclaimer: I don't know if this is a design flaw or not, but it sure sounds like it...
