First off, total engine failures in the Box are NOT rare, they are reported here from time to time.

Second, Porsche has changed its policy. They used to simply swap in a new engine and do it pretty quickly. Now, they do what you are experiencing.

Puzzling to say the least. If I had a new Porsche with a blown engine, the last thing I would want to do is wait until these turds got around to fixing it.

Moreover, personally, I would never buy another Porsche, but that is me.

From a corporate perspective, I just don't get it.

But then again, the Germans are totally arrogant when it comes to these things.

PS- I am of German heritage.

Best of luck.
