I think it is truly admirable that there are those out there that are quite keen on saving you money on things you don't need for your Porsche, well done!

Fidelity platinum does not list GT4 as one of the cars ineligible for coverage. GT3/GT3RS/GT2RS are explicitly excluded. Might be worth looking into this option prior to the car getting to 10k miles. A bumper to bumper 6 year/60kmile extension can be had for close to 2 grand.

Wow, that is a great price, they talk about repairs in Canada but a quick scan of their site leads me to believe that it is US only program?

Can you share what dealer in NC? I am in NC quite a lot.

The only extended warranty option I was given is a 2 year, unlimited km extension similar to the certified pre-owned warranty. Other option I'm considering is glass coverage up to $5,000 in 6 years for $1,900; average replacement cost is $1,500, it wouldn't surprise me if I used that up within the first 4 years given how gravel always finds my windshield.

If this is a Porsche supplied warranty can you PM me the details, I am looking at this and pre-paid maintenance as well. Thanks!

Business Manager will try to sell it to you. They have a full line up of Porsche direct coverage plans now. Ask your dealer to email you the brochures and detailed pricing. You can negotiate pricing and you can also purchase the extended warranty before your current one runs out and IIRC you can do that 2 times after original warranty runs out. If you wait you may have less leverage to get a discount and as they will tell you, price may go up.
