Macan is not a Taycan.
Yes, but in very specific circumstances. It is generally 3-6 months.
Iām no expert but I think it was 24+ months. Iām sure they will if theyāre making a shit ton on a 12 months off you. But thatās not really true pull ahead just games
It was me. I was denied a leaking air suspension while still under warranty. My understanding is that a leak is wear and tear. A complete electromechanical failure in any part of the system would be covered, however this is pretty rare compared to a leak.
For a 1 year lease, itās just down to luck. Youāre kinda chalked if it happens 1 month in, but in month 10 you can just limp it the last 2 months if itās not bad enough.

(To be clear, Iām not making fun of you, Iām making fun of the porsche dealers)
What was the story on this (if you know)? As someone who did salvage/rebuilt business, Iāve seen various kinds of twists but this is a first where a car got CPOād.

There are other examples on the internet too when it comes to CPO āissuesā..
I mean it seems that while the general public sees a certified label as high standards; itās still a way to move carsā¦ and I think as you can see with certain dealers; there are some gray areas to exploit.
The short answer is explained by @li8625 ās meme.
The long answer is this thing wouldnāt even light up. But thatās no biggie when youāre talking about a Porsche. Thing got shipped from FL to CA where magically it was repaired with a new exhaust and a new 12v battery. They didnāt even put on new rotors. Easily passed the rigorous CPO inspection hah.
PS, they sold this for over MSRP.
@jac_le iswaiting for the 911 that they fish out of Lake Michigan that @wam22 can do a great Juan-Pay lease.
You just have to under stand that the Porsche CPO program isnāt a preowned inspection program. itās a warranty and selling program.

Looks like it might not have had a branded title. I know some of the desirable cars with branded titles fetched high value (talking like 60-80% of clean value) in damaged condition because they were hard to come by
All CPOs are but some brands and dealers handle the certification process and necessary work better than others.
Here is my 2 cents. When I wanted to scratch my Macan itch, I bought locally a 3.5 yo non-CPO āSā, still under original warranty for another 6 months, and paid $756/mo. CPOs were selling for $5-8k more, depending on mileage. Added Porsche VSP Platinum 96 months/60k miles for $4,200 (received a refund for around $3.2k after sold one year later). Paid for 40k service at indy shop (prev owner only did oil changes at Porsche dealer), and for rear brakes when the sensor failed - around $2k total. Sold after one year for just under $4k less than what I paid (equity covered my $3.5k down payment). Ended up probably better than any CPO lease on a similar S, considering I pay full sales tax on leases.
@li8625 nows your chance! Go fix the CPO programme.
When you said not to rely on it solely, do you mean youād still do an independent inspection?
For a purchase? Yes.
For a 12m lease? No. I cannot pretend that would be a realistic bar to set. But at the least Iād look it over very closely and pay close attention during the test drive.
They can claim anything on the marketing materials but the reality is that weāve seen flood damaged, major accident on the carfax, and other egregious things. That being said, some of the CPO deals are worth it even with the issues. The only issue is buying it as a Long Term Hold imo
Thatās what most dealers told me. I was pretty confident that any issue would be covered by cpo warranty. And they also gave me a list of stuff they repaired for the cpo leases I got. Even tho they could have sold my 911 without tires they still put new ones on. Replaced thr entire dash and windshield too for some reason. Mine has ppf bubbling in a couple small spaces but I donāt really care about that. Rather have the ppf as itās easier to clean. If I was buying I would have had them remove it
If I was buying I would prob buy off a private buyer with meticulous records and buy an extended warranty. Cpo markup on a purchase doesnāt seem worth it to me
