Your Porsche Approved vehicle also comes with Porsche Assistance, exclusive
roadside assistance, that offers added security when traveling. With the
purchase or lease of each Porsche Approved vehicle, the owner will receive
the advantages of the Porsche 24-Hour Roadside Assistance program for the

Why should I buy a pre-owned Porsche from a Porsche dealer?
Nobody knows these cars better! Each vehicle is given a 100+ point inspection by a trained Porsche technicians and backed with a limited warranty, roadside assistance and attractive financing. Porsche Approved Certified Pre-owned Vehicles are only available from an authorized Porsche dealer. For peace of mind at a price that might surprise you, see your authorized Porsche dealer or visit Porsche.com to search for your vehicle.
Are all pre-owned Porsche vehicles suitable for the Porsche Approved Certified Pre-owned Program? Vehicles eligible for inclusion may be current model year and be no older than (8) years old from the original in-service date with less than 100,000 accumulated miles or 160,000 kilometers. In addition the vehicle must pass a stringent 100+ point inspection conducted by our authorized Porsche dealerships. This program excludes Carrera GT.

service.

return a repaired tire to the disabled vehicle are not part of the Porsche
