Jake and others:

It's fantastic to have such support for the engine on these cars.

But it does lead me, as being new to Porsche, to be fairly disappointed that such a large issue exists. All cars have wear and tear, but for a car to eat its own engine (and often at low mileage) is extremely unacceptable.

From my understanding, cost cutting at Porsche during rougher years is what lead to this unreliable fact.

By the way, I have a BMW and am active in that community and love cars; and I had never heard of this Porsche IMS issue until I started to more deeply research it. It's everywhere to be read, but for non-Porsche owners, you'd never know it. Disappointing.
