Porsche Ranks Ahead of All Other Top-End Brands; On Track for Record Year

Atlanta, November 4, 2009 – IntelliChoice.com announced this week that the winner of its 2009 Best Warranty for luxury cars is Porsche Cars North America. This is the second consecutive time that Porsche’s Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) program has received this prestigious award. Under the Porsche program, customers who purchase a Certified Pre-Owned Porsche will receive a company backed 2-year or cumulative 50,000 miles (whichever comes first) limited warranty that mirrors the new car limited warranty coverage. Additionally, for customers who buy cars with a balance of the New Car Limited Warranty Coverage, this remaining balance will be added to the new Certified Pre-owned Limited Warranty coverage, which makes coverage up to 6 years from the in-service date. According to IntelliChoice.com, Porsche rated the highest with customers of luxury brands in a number of key criteria, including: certification inspection process, brand value, extended manufacturer warranties, title verification, roadside assistance, special financing, return policy and dealer compliance with the program. “It is an honor to have IntelliChoice again recognize our CPO Warranty as the best among all the luxury competitors,” said Kevin P. Harvey, PCNA’s manager of pre-owned operations. “From a customer standpoint , this award means we are meeting our goals of providing warranty coverage that gives our customers peace of mind and a sense of value. Both are key factors to any successful CPO program.” So far this year, PCNA has sold 5,603 CPO vehicles, which is just slightly below last year’s record pace of 5,862. Harvey said he expects to surpass last year’s mark by year’s end. “Being recognized with this prestigious award will certainly help,” he said.
