Default Extra $ for insurance & drop off?

Does anyone know what it costs for additional insurance days and if you drop it off somewhere besides Zuffenhausen? Is Leipzig drop off free?

No extra charge for Leipzig. The photo of the price list for other locations is the second to last photo of the first post in this link: Phase I


I didn't get an exact price for the extra days insurance but was told that an extra week "would cost a few hundred [US dollars]"

I think I was estimated about an extra $250 per week, for my GT4 ED that is coming up.

Also, you may want to consider a Leipzig pickup (with the track) and Zuff dropoff. My understanding is that you could still do tour and museum upon dropoff, but you would get the track experience at pickup as well.

Just an update that Zuffenhausen policy has changed and they are no longer accepting drop-offs of Leipzig-delivered cars. There is an alternate drop located closer to the Stuttgart airport though (Sindelfingen) for a fee.

There probably will be all kinds of 'policy changes' as they scramble to increase their bottom line to bail out VW...this one is a real bad case of nickel-and-dime'ing.

If you have access to USAA, they can provide insurance at a fraction of the cost that Porsche does. I kept my car in Europe for almost 6 months that way.
