When you come to claim is when the true colors come out of a Porsche extended warranty. You invariably get less than you figured in the first place. As the posters state above put the $ that u would have put into the extended warranty into a separate bank account for rainy day repairs. These warranty co's are smarter than the average joe and are guaranteed to make $$$ for themselves. I go it alone. :dance:That's what I do anyway.
