I appreciate being able to search the archives for posts like this. I am buying "near new" 97, with only 4200 miles. I am buying the warranty because of the porous block issues leading to engine failure. I have heard that Porsche has helped some people with this issue, even well out of warranty. I talked to Porsche N.A. yesterday, and the rep would not even comment on the problem. No denial, no admittance, just no comment. Our service rep at the local Porsche dealer told me about it when I took the car in for an inspection. He recommended the service agreement because of the cost of a new engine, and said that the 4200 miles is well under that amount that really "tests" to see if the engine block is sound.

I don't know if you are still a member of the club or read the boards, but thanks.
