This is very interesting. Can anyone confirm?

My SA just told me:

“the wheel and tire program is not available for GT series cars. We used to offer it but that has been discontinued. The same for extended warranty protection. It is not available for GT cars”

Nope, I was offered PCNA extended warranty and maintenance. Same with tire wheel—except I can’t remember if it was PCNA or third party. Xpel was also offered.

They sent me the PDFs about a month before my car arrived. I can post them up if it’d help.

Published MSRP for the Porsche Scheduled Maintenance Plan (PSMP) for a GT4/Spyder is as follows:
+1 $1295
+2 $2415
+3 $4545
+4 $5370
Note that the first year maintenance is included so +1 covers the 2nd annual/20K service, +2 covers the 2nd and 3rd annual/milage services, and so on.
Note also that PSMPs are not insurance policies or extended warranties. They are meant to cover scheduled maintenance, not repairs that aren't otherwise covered under warranty or aren't covered after the new car warranty expires. The new car warranty doesn't cover scheduled maintenance other than the first year/10K service.
You can add $500 to each of those numbers above for June 2022 pricing. Range is now $1795 to $5870

Didn’t see this mentioned, if you should end up with a write-off (totaled in an accident or other event), you only get back $300 * each out year not used.

Had a +2 policy on a car and lost the car after 13 months. Got back $600, they kept the rest. Nice idea as an inflation hedge, but the risk of premium loss is too high. $hit happens.

Tire/Wheel/Dent/Key is different. All the prorated was returned.

Pretty sure, IIRC, if you sell you get nada back.

It’s not even a discount plan, it “locks in” current top tier pricing.

Very helpful - has he done any exhaust work for you (this is in my future, no doubt)?

Charlie is one of the good guys. Talk to him. He won't upsell you.
