has Porsche let us down?

How old was the RX8 at the time? I agree Porsche should do better, but they are covering engines during the warranty period, just not older 2nd-hand cars.

Mazda to extend warranty on RX-8 engines

Applies to second hand cars too.

If you bought an rx8 in 2004, technically the warranty would be valid to this day. Not a Mazda fan by any means, but quite an example of an auto company that stands behind their cars.

The car was about four years old, garage kept and well maintained.

Entending the warranty to 8 years is pretty good, though that still wouldn't help the majority of 986's now.
