Its a shame that your engine blew. I feel for you and I know that in your shoes I would be upset and would feel that Porsche should step up.
I would wager that you went to the dealer service dept with a blown engine on a 7 year old car and they told you that its out of warranty and there is nothing they can do for you other than to have you pay for a new motor or rebuild.
That sounds reasonable to me. Then, I would wager that you asked them if Porsche would stand behind their product and they said its out of warranty, sorry. I recommend you start your discussions with PCNA customer service by calling them 1-800-PORSCHE. It will probably take a long time to get to a human and then a longer time to get someone who will say anything meaningful.
But that's what you will have to go though. Remember, they don't legally owe you anything. Should you have an expectation that a 7 year old used car should run more than 60K miles? I don't know. I think I would.
But I would also know that when I buy a used car I take some inherent risks. I have no idea how the car was treated, whether it has its original engine, whether it was in an accident, whether it sat underwater for 6 months. I just wouldn't know and Carfax and dealer service records can't tell all. Given all that, I would never expect Porsche to buck up.
Just my opinion,
Alan
