Let's just say I know the guy that owns the above domain really, really, really well. Anyone interested in helping him build that site and contribute??

I'm thinking of documenting my experience with my engine failure as well as opening it up to others that have theirs fail too. There's a big difference between "Porsche Engines are built by trolls in the underword and designed to fail" and actual pictures/receipts from what happened

Hey, I agree 100% with the concept! Porsche should take responsibility for these issues! I never worried about an Porsche engine letting go until I got my 986S and than my 996.
BUT I remember years back when Porsche went after sites like Porschelist (Rennlist), Porschefans, Porschephiles because of the use of Porsche in their name and these were site that were pro-Porsche!
I would do the site but not use the Porsche name in it, It may have a better chance. On the other hand a fight with Porsche and some good media coverage might be the best thing.

Just my thoughts!

I just spent $12781 on a new engine so if it puts a bee in their bonnet so "bee" it.

Wow, that was terrible...
