Does it have to be a Porsche engine?

You keep dropping hints that something is terribly wrong with your engine. just spit it out already.

Nothing wrong with engine. Would really like to have a 3.2 or 3.6 liter that's all. I have all the service records and the car engine was well maintenanced by previous owners. Just don't have the funds to up grade.

....and you think someone is just gonna wanna give up their known good design 3,2 for your known bad design 2,7??? I'm confused, I guess.

I'm just a newbi when it comes to cars and even Porsches. Like I said before it's worth a try.

Yes, but man, I've got a better shot at bangin' Lady Gaga. Perhaps you could find a blown donor engine on craigslist that you could build up over the course of a couple of years.

I don't get it. If you don't have the funds to upgrade, and there is nothing wrong with the current engine, then why don't you just enjoy the engine you already have???

Alternatively, sell your car, and when you have the funds, buy a 3.2 or 964.
