wow...sucks....I would definitely see if ou can get some form of recourse....altho I get a feeling there is going to be a buyer beware attitude coming from the dealer...
if it makes you feel better, my porsche dealer sucks at doing warranty work....
I'd check on the lemon law itself, not just ask the dealer. My only experience with this is limited, but years ago I bought a used Miata from a dealer and discovered shortly after I bought it there was some undercarriage work that needed to be done. An attorney told me it was a hidden defect and that if the dealer wouldn't repair it I should take the car back and lock the keys in it on their lot. However, this is Louisiana and it's over ten years ago. But definitely worth checking into.
Right now I'm waiting to hear from the local dealer with the diagnosis. But if they don't have any good news, I may have to contact the other dealer I bought it from. I'm just so unfamiliar with this situation; nothing like this has ever happened to anyone I know. I'm not sure if I should expect help from some entity like Porsche or the dealer or am I simply SOL since I bought the car as-is?
Well thanks everyone for the comments and suggestions. I'll definitely look into some of these things.

Likley you are SOL. Check your documents and then check DMV and Consumer Laws in your state.
