Default Extend CPO

Does Porsche have a program to extend the CPO warranty period ? I am about half way through a 2 year CPO on a 2013 Panamera S and considering options for next steps. Not sure I want to go down the road of owning this car past the warranty period, but then again I am a very competent DIY mechanic and self maintained a lot of BMWs and other high end cars. PDK seems the biggest risk. Anyway - one option would be to extend the coverage another 2 years - by then I'd probably want another car anyway. I am less interested in the aftermarket warranties.

Not really, you'd have to get them to buy it from you, bring it up to CPO standards and sell it back. Some dealers will do it, mine wouldn't. My dealer works closely with Fidelity, their Platinum warranty is good, but it can be pricey, it depends on the mileage. I just did that with my 911. For example, on my '13 Carrera S with 41k miles, 3/36 was $4100 with a $250 deductible.

Ok cool. $4-5K is what I would expect for 2-3 years. I don't drive that many miles so I could do a 3/30 or 3/24 policy or something along those lines if that exists.

Also my mileage is low. 30K now and will be at 40K at most when the CPO expires.

I purchased a 2013, CPO, 4S two years ago. My warranty expires in June and I have not decided on whether to self-insure or explore extended warranties.

At the time of purchase I did inquire about Porsche extended warranty as I had considered a private sale Panny which the original owner had extended twice.

I was told that as the first CPO owner I would have the option of purchasing a two year Porsche extension.

Any idea the cost of a 2 year extension ?
That seems like a pretty good option if the price is right.

I was told you can't buy the Porsche branded warranty extension unless there initial warranty hasn't expired yet.

I think it is also country dependent - might not be able to get that where you live.

Resurrecting this thread. Anybody know if Porsche will extend the CPO for 2 years to the original CPO buyer here in the US?

I was trying to sell the car but haven't had much luck and looks like the value has dropped more than I would expect in 1 year - so based on the current valuation I think it makes more sense to keep it.
And I'm not opposed to rolling the dice as I have very strong DIY capabilities and this car is a NA motor and conventional suspension so less prone to failures - although certainly not immune to it!
So I'd like to explore options. I have 10 months to figure it out. And the car is technically still for sale - but I'm leaning towards just keeping it since it seems I've taken a pretty good hit on depreciation already and seems likely it won't be able to drop as much from here since it's a very low miles car. Currently at 32K miles and I will add maybe 6K / year at most.

You can extend CPO in Canada. Sorry c4racer I don't know about US specifically, but this info might help someone else.

It's around $4500 plus inspection fee of $1000. Anything that doesn't meet CPO standard needs to be fixed. Worn brakes, tires etc.. It won't pass inspection without OEM certified tires.

You can do it when there is 1 year remaining on the existing CPO and end up with 3 year CPO coverage.

CPO coverage was recently extended from 10 to 15 years. Before the 13 year mark if you're under 200,000km / 125,000 miles you can extend it another 2 years unlimited mileage.

I personally plan on taking my Turbo S to 240,000km.

From what I have read it seems we can't do that in the US. I'll probably just go on my own then.

That's about 150,000 miles which is my goal as well. I bought new here in the US so at some point I'm going to have to buy an extended warranty. I do wonder what the issues/costs will be in the 75k-150k mile range...

Even if I do keep mine 4-5 more years that will only put me at around 60K.
