Bought a used Porsche-warranty paid for a new engine

Bought a used 911 from a guy who had bought the extended warranty. That particular model was susceptible to catastrophic bearing failure, destroying the entire engine block in the process. Extended warranty paid the $19,000 repair bill in total. Made me a convert.
