I would recommend checking with your servicing dealer as to their experience with any aftermarket warranty company before making a decision. My dealer was very down on them because they don't pay according to the same labor manuals as the dealer uses and the customer gets stuck in the middle fighting over whether a particular job is covered and for how much.
Nazz,
I too was in the market for extended warranty for 99 C2. I have compared every single ones out there and was about to purchase 1source Diamond package. However, after talking to the service rep, I found that any plastic parts and seals arent covered. I asked him about plastic coolant case and RMS. He said "Leaks" isn't covered ,nor plastic parts. This seems to be pretty standard for all aftermarket extended warranties. My dealer said I could buy an aftermarket warranty that the dealer would treat as a factory warranty for about $500/year but I declined it. Now that I think that isnt too bad either so I just sent them email asking to fax me a detailed info.
BTW, my car has 13K miles.
Not sure I follow the logic of the waranty co. not taking a car out of warranty. If a car were in warranty why would it need additional coverage (2 coverages at the same time)? Make sense? They want people in warranty to predict if they want coverage after their coverage ends? Seems like fuzzy logic.
Without defending the warranty companies, I think their logic is they don't want a break in warranty coverage between the factory and themselves, i.e., they want anything that needs to be covered under the factory warranty to be fixed by the time they pick up the car. What happens is that you purchase the extended warranty just before the factory warranty runs out.

I bought my car from a private individual and prior to titling it ran it through my local Porsche dealer who inspected it and then put it under a Porshe Certified Warranty. That gives you an additional 2 years and 100,000 miles of coverage.
The cost for the warranty was $1595 and the inspection was around $500.
I was far more comfortable with a warranty from Porsche than a third-party.
The upside for the dealer was that they made some money on the extended warranty and they also get all the service business.
