Boxster paperweight

Hi you guys (and gals) long time no typing.. Let me catch you up. I was parking my boxster three weeks ago. I heard no noise but knew something happened. When I got out of the car it was on fire near the header on the driver's rear. The fire was from oil released when whatever happened did happen. The car restarted sounded smooth except a chain like rattle. Shut it down, towed to house. Porsche of course doesn't care about the M96 so I'm on my own...

Additionally, I herniated another disc in my back which has left me with permanent disability in my left leg. I can't shift anymore, I have to give up my Fiat 124 and I'm hoping, to somehow, next spring have my Boxster repaired to give to my cousin who has been helping me take care of my ailing dad..

After that, maybe I'll drive the dreaded PDK, although Zuffenhousen and their cost per mile enjoyed really, truly pissed me off and left me feeling screwed.
