Good for you, just wish it were a single row car and not another dual row.

I have 63k on my '99. Tell me the juicy details. No chocolate milk? No bearing failure? No D-chunk? Reassure me.

Congrats, too!

Hey Man, we remember your story... you got serious intermix just three weeks after buying your Porsche. It was great to hear the dealership didn't throw you under "sold as-is" bus, but serviced the car and got you back on the road. But I never did not hear exactly what you paid out of pocket for the whole service. I understand they didn't charge you for a great deal of the service, but you and had to pay for a Porsche part. What was the final bill?

At the end, the bill was $9800. I ended up just paying $2000 out of pocket in preventive maintenance parts since the whole drivetrain was dropped and everything was assessable. Everything else was taken care of from the dealership.

Don't go reading any of those IMS threads or you'll need therapy
