Buying an Imported Cayenne in Vancouver

Does anyone know if MCL will service the US imported porsche with valid warranty? Please help!

I have done so many research, all I got was out of date information and saying PCNA voided all imported porsche warranty in Canada. Is that true?

I was told there would be no problem for my 05 C2.
I live closer to Bellingham anyway so Roger Jobs is good for me.

Hmm..seems if its a used car then it will have no problems.

What about a 08 model porsche imported from US. Will the dealer in Canada service them?

I have had my 997S into MCL for warranty work, they don't really treat me like the want my business. Any non warranty work, like oil, brakes, or tune ups you could take it to Weissach or Scan (North Van). I am sure there are a bunch of others, but these two are very good.

MCL will charge you some sort of administration fee. I believe they call it a vehicle importation package or something along that line. They will handle your vehicle, but you won't be at the front of the line.

Keep in mind the '08 997/987 cars require some bumper modifications. It's not huge money like MB conversions, but it's not simple like the '07 and previous cars.

No bumper mods are required now.
Just a small carpet cutaway for the tether anchor.

did you end up importing a cayenne into canada? I am researching into that right now. It sucks how MCL has such terrible customer service.
