Well, I have done it. Put 50K miles on the CS and the initial date of service was within the same week. Did not plan it that way, just happened.

So now I go from original Factory Warranty to my Porsche Certified Pre-Owned Warranty that lasts up until 100K or another two years, whichever comes first. Some good marketing and math logic on that one.....

Does anyone know (or has tested) the CPO warranty and understand the major differences? Yes, I know, RTFM but I thought i would take a shortcut and see what you all know.

cpo warranty basically just picks up where the factory left off. i purchased a 3rd party warranty that most dealers accept and saved a couple bucks.

there are some minor differences - the CPO is not a true bumper to bumper - there is a pdf available on the porsche web site. let me know if you can't find it - I posted a link to it in another thread at one point.

This is not true at all. Only the parts listed explicitly on the PDF are whats covered. I have posted it before.

Thanks for posting that list. I will look for the PDF as well.

Real men don't worry about differences between OEM and CPO warranties.....they simply ride off into the sunset of 'naked' Cayenne ownership.

What about being "double naked"== that's how I will be sometime next fall. :-)
