I clearly have different risk tolerance than the tough guys on this forum. I’m going to drive it until it breaks and then I’m going to fix it. Got the recommended oil from LN and will do frequent changes and oil analysis.

Exactly! I would think any informed buyer has an expectation of one day rebuilding their engine - I do.

Intersting perspective. Similar to buying a house knowing it's probably going to fall down soon.
I thought most informed buyers stay informed so they don't have to rebuild the engine in their newly purchased $70,000 997?
.....I guess I have it wrong.

On other forums I am a member of insulting other members is not allowed. I have seen this same person insult several people, including myself, over the past few weeks. This is childish behavior and I agree makes RL not worth coming to as often if at all. This is part of the reason I took a break from this site for many years. It is sad to see that things haven't really changed.
