Before buying a certified pre-owned vehicle, check out this explanation of the certified pre-owned program offered by Porsche. This explains the warranty program for the manufacturer; how old the certified pre-owned vehicles are, and other benefits you can expect from the manufacturer’s certified pre-owned program.

Vehicles eligible 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.

This program excludes Carrera GT.

Porsche approved vehicles get a 111 point inspection and and a detailed reconditioning process.

Every Porsche approved vehicle comes with a comprehensive warranty:

  • Customers who purchase a Certified Pre-Owned Porsche will receive a company backed 2-year or 50,000 miles (whichever comes first) limited warranty that mirrors the new car limited warranty coverage
  • If sold once the new vehicle warranty has expired, coverage is 2 years from the date of sale or up to 100,000 miles, whichever comes first
  • Complete warranty information is available at the Porsche certified pre-owned website.

Customers will only be responsible for normal wear and tear components such as brake pads, wiper blades and regularly scheduled maintenance. Twenty-four hour roadside assistance is also included in the pre-owned package.
