As others have said... not much has changed with these motors in 10 years. Anyone with access to the internet should know the risks involved in buying a Porsche.

It's a (mostly) free market economy. We all have the option of voting with our wallets. If Porsche feels that they are losing sales due to a bad reputation for reliability, then they will have to address reliability (sounds like they may have on the new models with no IMS). The existing Porsches should be (and for the most part, are) priced according to the risk involved and the maintenance cost involved.

The solution is to say "it's ok I'll own one anyway" suck it up and own one
or "it's not ok, this thing is a time bomb" and don't own one

Porsche never promised they would be like other cars and get >100k miles.
We all had access to the internet before making our purchases. (unless you bought a brand new one when they first came out).

Given the intensive almost cult like attention these cars receive, 100K on the odometer should be a minimum expectation. I drove my 944 to 105K , it had very expensive work done to it along the way but it was still a solid engine when I sold it.
