"It may only be a 4K porshe but she has transportation and it is all hers."

It's not a 4,000 dollar Porsche. It's worth at most $100. Since ANY repairs will cost more than $100 on a Porsche, and since that model has a terrible reputation for unreliability, anyone who knows the cars would be reluctant to take one even for free. I will agree that the gesture was a nice one, but not as nice as the article would lead you to believe.

I looked at a used 924 in the late 80s. Everything that I saw under the hood fairly screamed "This car overheats". I gave it a miss. Glad that I did.

Still, I hope that the young lady has a good time with whatever time on the road the thing has left.
