Diesel Cayenne and VW emission issue

I would expect so. Both the factory and CPO warranties are transferable and I don't expect this to be treated different than either of those.

Extended warranty
Is the extended warranty like a CPO or just an extended power train warranty. I thought it was like a CPO but a current owner says it's only a power train warranty.

Nice for the ext. warranty. would be nice if VW did the same thing instead of a lousy gift card.

So, here's something weird.
I contacted a Porsche dealer about a CD they listed on eBay. He said that dealer cars are not part of the goodwill extended warranty. In fact, he said Porsche will not allow them to CPO or extend the warranty in any way. The only way to extend is with aftermarket on a CD. If I was a dealer I'd be pissed. He quoted $4600 for an aftermarket warranty similar to the Porsche extended warranty, essentially making his car that much more expensive than private party cars. I suggested it's gonna be hard for them to compete with private party cars with that kind of disparity. He agreed.
Looks like I'll shift my focus to private party cars only.

Agree, it makes no sense. I don't see he'd have any reason to lie. I don't see how telling me a story like that to get $4600 makes sense either.
Seems like Porsche doesn't care as much about the dealers. What are they gonna do, give up a franchise of the most profitable car company on earth? Doubtful.

I'd call PCNA and report that dealer if I were you as they are most assuredly trying to scam potential buyers.
If it was an otherwise CPO appropriate car, it could be CPO'd. I also doubt that any diesel sold prior to the fix being applied will not qualify for the goodwill coverage.
What seems far more likely is that they know things are muddy right now so they are using that and the associated fear to try to sell extended warranties. Extended warranties are very lucrative for car dealers.

It seems extraordinarily weird.
The car was a service loaner only, never sold out of the dealership so it should be an easy CPO.
There are a lot of cars out there so it's not worth fussing over. Though it was the wife's favorite of those we looked at.......

PCNA should be aware of it, then it's on them to deal with if they feel appropriate.
