2004 Turbo
for $25,000
67,000 miles
TITANIUM
Purchase at
52203 Indiana State Route 933 North,
SOUTH BEND, IN 46637




Pretty sure only a dealer (friendly one will do it for free) can do this, or someone with a copy of PET that can connect to Porsche's servers.

My advice, buy something from suncoast and ask nicely if they can do it for free. They used to.

What is the acronym COA that is being used here stand for? I think we know where the Cayenne is made (Leipzig, Germany) so it isn't Country of Assembly.

Never mind, found it:

Porsche Cars North America, Inc.
Certificate of Authenticity
980 Hammond Drive, Suite 1000
Atlanta, GA
30328 USA
Email coa@porschecars.com (preferred)
Tel 1-800-PORSCHE (option 5)
Fax 1-800-322-2436

I suppose I should be getting one with my new car but I'll check nevertheless.

No point in getting a COA for a new car; just keep your window sticker.
