Porsche
Like other brands Porsche dealers are adding huge markups. I recall european delivery has the prices fixed without rooms for nego, is it still the case? If yes is it actually a good option now?
Call all dealers in your area, I had to call 4 of them before I found a Mazda dealer who was selling at MSRP
VW Jetta is a good option.
Lexus and acura in my area are the only ones who havent added any markup.......yet
Theres small markups on allocations of 911 S and gts but the waitlist is 1.5 years long. The new 911 in inventory is stupid marked up at 30k. Hopefully the supply chain issue resolves so I’ll get mine before 30🙏
1.5 years comes quick, a lot of these people on waitlists don’t come through when their name comes up.
I am 29 and got a 911S. It was only 141 after all markups
Call all the shops. Negotiate and average down O(nlog$) Good luck
What model and trim are you looking for OP?
4s
Will probably have to work the phones quite a bit, but shouldn’t be hard to get on some waitlists with no markup. I’m assuming this is a 911 4S and not a Taycan.
At this point, I’d rather wait things out and get a preowned off Carmax.
Called my local Porsche for a GT4 RS: MSRP + $100k markup => Thanks but no thanks!
Lmaoo those were already sold out on announcements. Its the best cayman porsche will ever make. Probably gonna resale for a lot more in the future, like the 911 R.
Anybody getting a GT car with no markup is going to be someone who has built a long relationship with the dealer. If you’re just calling them up, it’s going to be the biggest markup they think they can get. Sucks, but that’s what it is.
Long time Porsche owner/enthusiast here... Buying at over MSRP is going to be a very poor financial decision in the long run. These cars depreciate. But if you really want the car and can afford the spend, it's the only way you are going to get one. Euro delivery has no impact on the price. The purchase is still through the dealer, not directly with Porsche. There are many shady dealers who are taking advantage of the current market condition. You should NEVER give any money to a dealer unless they have an allocation for you (with dates, build number, etc...) A lot of the dealers will promise an allocation that they don't have and take your money as a deposit. My advice is to wait until the market calms down. I bought a new 911 1.5 years ago and got an 8% discount all up. These are not limited production cars.
is the market better now
European delivery is still via a dealership’s order, I haven’t checked but you’d need to make some calls. Nothing is stopping them from taking a markup from you upfront
