CPO vs Non-CPO?

Has anyone purchased a non-cpo Panamera? If so, what are the pros and cons?

PRO: a large $ amount failure/repair that is covered by the CPO warranty.

CON: a large $ failure/repair NOT covered since there is no CPO warranty.
I think the early production cars would benefit CPO coverage especially multiple-owner and higher mileage vehicles. Not super critical on newer MYs since bugs have been worked out. But hey, for some 3-4K is a bargain for that extra peace of mind.

I have a 2010 PTT and a CPO. I bought it with 60k miles. I have had at least $4k - $6k of warranty work done in the year+ that I've had it.

I'd have to look it up, but if memory serves, it was:

1. Front control arms (can't remember upper or lower but it wasn't both).
2. Air suspension failed in the front. Replaced the front bags, the distribution block, and the pump (again - going from memory).

No issues with the claim?


Do you mind me asking how many miles on your Panamera?


Thank you
