Fidelity Platinum Warranty - Where to buy

There are also state laws which will make a difference in price. For example, here in Florida we are a "filed rate" state. These warranties (extended service contracts) are a regulated insurance product here and have to be sold at the rate filed with the state insurance commission. Discounting or marking up is illegal. The filed rate is a 100% markup for the seller, making it a very expensive place to buy an esc. I was just quoted over $10k for 3 years on my Range Rover...

For those interested in getting warranty, i'd contact Sunset Porsche to see if they are selling Fidelity warranty for your porsche- perhaps it's still for sale thru dealers.
Last yr i almost bought the Costco warranty they offered for my newly purchased 07 997.1TT- price was decent & seemed like great coverage- plus i really like costco products- i didn't get it since my car had most of 2 yr CPO left- then costco stopped offering the warranties for porsche, then stopped selling them at all.
Few months back i decided to ck out price on Fidelity Platinum from Sunset Porsche for the 997.1 TT, even though i still had 10-11 months left on CPO- decided to buy 6yr coverage right then, just in case Fidelity stopped offering coverage for my car- (Porsche of Hawaii switched from offering Fidelity & started using Zurich at a much higher price).

I have noticed that lots of aftermarket warranties have stopped offering plans for 911s. This may be do in part for the IMS issues and high payouts. Two months ago I purchased a 4 year, 60K miles exclusionary warranty from Endurance and paid $2,800. I still have a CPO warranty until December but I was concern that they may stop covering 911.

3 yrs ago I was quoted almost $10K for a 6 year B2B Fidelity from the dealer. Got the same terms from another company for less than half that. Shortly thereafter they stopped selling them for Porsches, but the company is in good shape and my warranty is still valid.

just picked up mine today. a guy i know is the finance manager and he hooked me up. if your car is still under warranty then all you have to do is pay over the phone. 3% surcharge for credit card. I got Plat coverage with $100 deductible 6 years 60k miles. My car is an 07 TT with 30k on it. I paid $5500. Suncoast quoted me $9200 for the same warranty and a $250 deduct. That's insane. he said he would be willing to do $500 over cost for any of my P car buddies. So that would be near $6k. Still $3200 cheaper. No sales tax. i can post a copy of it if anyone wants to see it.
thanks,

I bought my Fidelity from a VW dealership since their quote was $3k cheaper compared to a local Porsche dealership for the same coverage. Once you have it, it'll be honored anywhere fidelity is accepted, including Porsche dealerships.

To avoid the 3% cc surcharge you have to pay with check or cash.

I was quoted the following from a local Porsche dealer in the SF Bay Area For Fidelity Platinum for my 2012 Panamera with 37k miles and 3 months left of the original factory warranty:
6 YEARS / 72,000 MILES - $19,070.00
6 YEARS / 60,000 MILES - $17,672.00
All the Honda and Audi dealerships in the area that sell Fidelity warranties refuse to sell me a contract because I "should go back to Porsche". So I am really left with one option.
Sid, sorry I didn't give you a heads up but I emailed Mike for a quote last night but I haven't heard back yet. I know you don't know me so there's no obligation.
I am at a loss right now.
