Ah yea ok so it was probably because you have so low miles. I called Suncoast Porsche who is always supposed to have such great prices you know. Well they quoted me $11,660 dollars for a 6/60 platinum!!!
I was quoted 5800 for the same thing by a dealer here in Atlanta for a platinum although I wont be getting that plan anyway.

 

To be honest anything over $4k I would pass on warranty coverage. I rather keep the car well maintain and fix problems as it come up.

This is long but worth a read. Not sure these warranties are worth it or not.

 

I have the Fidelity Platnium that was transferred over from the previous owner. I called Fidelity today to see if they will cover my clutch accumulator and they said it doesn't cover any clutch or clutch related parts. I think it's a waste of money

 

Clutch, tires, brakes pads and rotors are your responsibility for maintenance, it is considering as wear and tear items. Those items would fall into maintenance packages sold new through dealerships such as BMW, MB, and Audi but I don't think Porsche offer that. Not even Porsche OEM warranty would cover your clutch parts.
FYI - my dealer charge $600 for accumulator, master and slave cylinder cost $1600. You looking at $2200 in repair bills for those items but you have 2 years warranty on parts and labor from dealer

 

if anyone interest to see what fidelity platinum warranty covers, PM me and I will send the policy terms and agreements to you. It is mostly moving parts, including AC, windows regulators and some brake line and hydraulic lines. Pretty intensive coverage if you ask.

 

+1
That's a huge difference from the ~$6k some people have been quoted.
Anyone go to Fidelity direct instead of through a dealer?

 

I called them direct but they told me they wont sell to an individual you have to go through a dealer.

 

Thanks,
saved me a call

 

For each 10k miles, the price goes up substantially. I got mine done with 29k miles on it and had I waited until 30k It would have gone up another $1000 or so.

 

Not sure how Fidelity works, but from my understanding anything less than 10k miles, you got almost new car warranty pricing (cheapest), then at 25k miles you looking at 80% increase, than at 45k you paying more than triple the premium. My local Porsche dealer (only one here) offer me $ 13111 for my car???? I told them I got it for $2600, he keep telling me the other guy made a mistake or I am lying...WTF

 

folks may want to ck pricing sunset porsche in oregon, ask for fin mgr & ask for RL/6sp pricing on Fidelity platinum- I've bought two from them at decent prices on cars with <25k miles- no affiliation- just saved a bunch over other quotes-

 

I just confirm and paid for Fidelity Platinum Plan for my 2008 Turbo with 9880 miles on the clock for $2606. If anyone want to speak to my finance manager who sold me the package from Circle Porsche at Long Beach CA, PM me and I will give you his personal cell phone number. Or you can call the dealer and ask for Elliot Dawson yourself.

 

That's just crazy. 1 decent repair at the dealer over the next 5 years and the warranty pays for itself, regardless of what you paid for it. Doesn't mean your engine has to blow. It can be as simple as a power seat malfunctioning, an LED going bad in the taillight, etc. One of the LEDs went bad in the taillight of my Maserati, and its a non-servicable part. So the only fix was to replace the whole taillight assembly. I wish I had a warranty then. Also, for PDK guys to keep in mind, the Fidelity Platinum covers the entire gearbox, clutches included. It does not cover this on manual transmission cars.

 

I agree and I did get warranty for all my Pcars but it didn't cost me anything close to $4k. Another advantage of paying a little more for a low mileage car is cheaper warranty
