If you actually simply love Boxsters, and are simply all about driving your Boxsters, and are already fine with buying them despite the engine failure risks, then you should actually be all for the idea of the engine failures becoming well known via 60 Minutes or a class action suit, etc. and then the value of Boxsters dropping precipitously. Then when yours fails, you will be able to economically replace it. You were already willing to pay the current price for the risk, why wouldn't you rather pay less for the risk?

Few Boxster owners bought their cars as investments.

I want one but am hesitant to drop $25,000+ on one just to worry every time I turn the key may be the last. I'd feel a lot better if it only cost me $8,000. Then I could buy three and hope at least one survives for my driving pleasure.
