Man if dropping $12K on of those repairs doesn't scare away a first time Porsche buyer... and you thought $2K for a IMSB was bad?
IMS totals the engine, so it is a $12k+ repair

996 911 for $10k? While I don't doubt that might have happened somewhere (hate to see what it looked like!), that's hardly the norm. ~$20,000 is closer to what they cost in average condition, but if you have some links for 911's selling for $10,000 I'd be happy to take a look
