I must admit, part of my motivation for helping is to drive a Porsche when I visit.
I feel a "bit" guilty for being so enthusiastic about helping. But only a bit.
I have been poking around here in Germany for a deal on a Porsche, but unfortunately, the latest thing is importing US spec cars, because they are cheaper and better than buying local.

Sounds like things are working out in the proper direction. Acclimating to the SF lifestyle should come first. The money saved by not paying for the car, plus private parking rent can go to a lot of Lyft/Uber rides around the city. She can always rent a Zipcar or some other short-term car share when she and the dogs want to leave the city.
Then when the time is right to go car shopping talk with some mechanics and members of the local PCA chapters, if she's dead set on the Porsche lineage.
