I thought you were going to play diplomat first? I understand how you feel, I lost one at less than 30K with religious oil changes and I still don't know what exactly it was that fell into disrepair. I started out like Gandhi and think my final communique celebrated my father's participation in making sure the world didn't speak German. They simply don't care, we are peons to them and if you have a late model you bought used that goes double. They make a fantastic product with no safety net under it and frankly they make no bones about it. How do they get away with it without massive lawsuits? That I don't know, think you're pissed? Go read the 911 blogs of guys who spent north of 100G for a paper weight. A lot of them are sworn enemies of Porsche and would do anything to thwart a future sale. Will they someday be the German Kodak? If they keep that level of arrogance up you can bet on it. Everyone is going to expect VW to be awesome now and that is not going to be an easy trick to pull off. Paul is giving you solid advise, get your money and run, if you can't change the engine yourself all you are going to do is pay a painful amount for the Resurrection of your own car. It's likely cheaper to sell it as a roller and get another one if like me you want a Porsche. In fact 11AM today, I get to see what I bought blind!! (gulp)
