I still think that it is something that should be a part of the list of things to keep in mind. As with any bearing. The discussion of why Porsche used a plain bearing can be discussed to death, but it is what it is. I don't think, upon selling a car, there should be any sort of "discount" provided for an IMS that has no history. A swapped IMS doesn't automatically make the engine bullet proof. If the PPI checks out... then good to go. Up to the buyer to proceed. And I agree, marketing hype has created the paranoid state, but it would be folly to completely dismiss it as a regular maintenance item.
