Just told by a the Porsche dealer that the CPO cannot be transferred to a person I sell the car to, but can be transferred to a Porsche dealer if I trade or sell it to them..
Didn't know this..

My understanding is that it is transferable to another buyer. I just checked the limited paperwork I received with my CPO when I purchased my car with a dealer-applied CPO 2 years ago. It says that the warranty covers the car up to 6 years or 100k cumulative miles from original in-service date if the warranty was applied before factory warranty expired, or 2 years/100k cumulative miles if applied after factory warranty expired. There is no mention of it being transferable or non-transferable.
The dealer may have been uninformed, like many are. What is true is that the CPO can only be applied by a dealer to a car they are selling.

From the Porsche Brochure
Can I transfer the warranty?
Should you wish to sell your
Porsche, you will also benefit
from the Porsche Pre-Owned
Limited Warranty. The
remaining warranty can be
transferred to the new owner

I tend to research major purchases pretty thoroughly, so usually find myself talking to salespeople who know less about their product than I do. You'd think they would at least try to be more informed about the (expensive) items they are selling.

This has been an issue with me for a very long time. Why is it so hard for a luxury car salesman to know their $100k+ product? Look at sales in other $100K+ deal industries... Baffles me...

Stevinson Imports in Colorado, talking with their Finance mgr, he told me this. I asked again, and he said it was not transferrable to a guy next door, but to another Porsche dealer if I traded or just sold to them.

Interesting. That is who I bought my CPO'd car from 2 years ago. Seems like someone needs to show him the manual quoted above.

And the GM was right - that dude sold blue alligator boots to a buddy of mine. Granted, this was the 1980s, but still...

It baffled me for a while as well. I pride myself in knowing more about cars in general than most, but I never understood why there was a disconnect with even basic things when talking to salesmen. Then I remembered back to a new salesman at a Ferrari dealership where I worked in high school - the GM found the guy at Nordstrom. These guys are hired because of their sales skills, not their automotive knowledge.
