Ferrari versus Porsche New Car and Extended Warranty
1) In the U.S., what is the reason Ferrari provides a 2 yr./unlimited mile warranty on their new cars versus
Maserati's 4 yr./50k mi. warranty and Porsche's warranty?
U.S.A. New Porsche warranty:
Basic: 4 yr. / 50,000 mi.
Drivetrain: 4 yr. / 50,000 mi.
Roadside: 4 yr. / 50,000 mi.
Rust: 10 yr. / Unlimited mi.
From Porsche USA website:
* 4 years warranty for all new vehicles;
* 2-year warranty for genuine Porsche parts, exchange parts and accessories, which are used or sold outside of warranty work. The warranty period for Porsche parts which are used in connection with warranty work ends contemporaneously with the warranty period for the purchased item which has become defective;
* 3 years for the paintwork;
* 10-year long-life warranty against rust holes in the bodyshell. (please refer to the conditions in the Warranty and Maintenance handbook)
Porsche Approved Warranty is 2 years / 100,000 miles, once the vehicle is outside the original vehicle warranty period.
2) What are the warranties in Europe and the rest of the world for Ferrari and Porsche? Is this the ROW warranty for Porsche:
* 2 years warranty for all new vehicles;
* 2-year warranty for genuine Porsche parts, exchange parts and accessories, which are used or sold outside of warranty work. The warranty period for Porsche parts which are used in connection with warranty work ends contemporaneously with the warranty period for the purchased item which has become defective;
* 3 years for the paintwork;
* 10-year long-life warranty against rust holes in the bodyshell. (please refer to the conditions in the Warranty and Maintenance handbook)
Under certain conditions, a 1-year Approved Warranty can also be effected for used Porsche vehicles.
3) Also in the U.S. regarding extended warranties, Porsche offers new cars (for a fee) and used cars (no fee) with a 6 yr./100,000 mile warranty, correct? Ferrari offers a complicated "Power" tier-system extended warranty on their new and used cars. Is the Ferrari Power extended warranty as good or better than Porsche's extended warranty?
4) In the U.S., is it true some new Ferrari's receive a 2 yr/unlimited while other new Ferrari's receive a 3yr/unlimited?
