Porsche Approved – this grade is given to pre-owned Porsche vehicles which meet the high quality standards of the Porsche brand. This is how you can broaden your choice between a new and a pre-owned vehicle by one additional option: a Porsche Approved vehicle.

What distinguishes a Porsche Approved certified vehicle from a conventional pre-owned vehicle?

• Porsche Approved vehicles are inspected by factory trained technicians who conduct a mechanical and cosmetic 100+ point inspection
• Repairs are carried out in line with the strict Porsche quality criteria
• The Porsche Approved Certified Preowned Program comprises two distinct limited warranty coverages.
  1) The limited warranty covers up to 6 years or a cumulative 100,000 miles/160,000 kilometers, whichever comes first if the vehicle is still under the new car limited warranty.
  2) The limited warranty covers 2 years from the date of sale, up to a cumulative 100,000 miles/ 160,000 kilometers from the current mileage on the odometer at the time of purchase.
• Porsche Roadside Assistance, the exclusive support service that offers added security

What can you expect?
Driving pleasure, quality, safety and stability of value. In short: A Porsche which really cannot be described as a pre-owned vehicle. Rather, as a thoroughbred sports car the charm of which was once tasted by another driver.

The warranty seal of “Porsche Approved” stands for certified quality.

Since 2000, IntelliChoice.com has evaluated and selected the best Certified Pre-Owned warranty program as part of its Best Certified Pre-Owned Awards. The evaluation considers all aspects of a CPO warranty, including the amount of benefits beyond the new car warranty, total amount of warranty, deductibles, areas covered, and at what point the warranty begins. For 2009, the luxury class winner of this year’s award is Porsche Approved Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles. Porsche offers 6-years and 100,000-miles, which is 2-years and 50,000-miles above and beyond the new car warranty. The Porsche warranty has no deductible, is a true extension of the Porsche new car warranty and even offers 2-years and 100,000 total miles of coverage for those vehicles purchased that are outside of the warranty.
