If you wait until the manufacturer’s warranty has expired, your coverage options become more limited and pricing will typically increase. In most cases, an inspection is required to qualify for coverage at that point, and both Porsche and third-party plans tend to be more expensive.


I recommend that customers secure the Porsche Vehicle Service Protection (VSP) plan while the vehicle is still under the manufacturer’s warranty. Not only does this help you lock in lower pricing, but it also provides added flexibility—if you decide to sell the vehicle, you may be eligible for a prorated refund on the unused portion of the coverage.
When is the best time to start this process? How long before our factory warranty expires?

Now is the best time to get started. Once your factory warranty expires, prices go up, and your options become more limited. Taking care of this now lets you lock in better rates and stronger coverage. Porsche has already increased costs again within the first 3 months of the year.

My warranty expires in December (I'll arrive at 4 years before the 50K miles). If I started the process now would I have overlapping coverage for no reason?

Not at all. The Porsche VSP locks you into the discounted price but does not start until the manufacturing warranty expires.
Nice! Thanks for the info. I'll get in touch soon.

The same confusing point comes up with this... which warranty? The original 4 year or the CPO?

In the past I believe you said it was best to wait on the CPO and avoid overlapping coverage.
