Last Friday I elected not to renew my Porsche used car warranty on my 2001 S.
The OPC wanted $US1,750 for the 12 month warranty plus a 12 monthly service is required before issuing the warranty @ $US630 - a total of $US2,380.
Considering the car has only done 4000 miles since its last service by the OPC when I bought it (and that's about my annual mileage anyway) I took the advice from members of this board and PPBB and decided to bank the money and wear the outcome.
I do do my own maintenance so this had a direct bearing on my decision, but I think a lot of people run scared after reading some of the horror stories that appear on the net. Just be vigilant and half the Porsche service intervals....
