I've talked to a few dealers that sound like they would be willing to give a better discount on a 2012 "new 911 Carrera" than a 2013. But you have to find what you want in stock. I have checked almost every dealer website in the US using the "find a dealer" tab on Porsche USA and there are very, very few 911's in my color preferences with the options I want (and not a bunch I don't). Ordering a 2013 to my exact specs at 5% off is going to get me a better deal than getting 8-10% off on a 2012 that has extra unwanted options.

Anyone know what the MF and Residual on a 2012 and 2013 911 S Cab? I am considering either 24 or 36 months with 12K miles per year. I haven't had any success in getting a 8-10% discount on the 2012.

I'm only considering buying, so can't help you with lease info, and not sure if leasing would change my following two points, but here they are, nonetheless: (1) If you can't get at least an 8%+ discount on a 2012 that's exactly what you want, I'd order a 2013 from a dealer wiling to give a 5%+/- discount. You are trading off waiting for 8+/- weeks for delivery for a better financial deal.
(2) If money is no object, the $14,300 difference between the base and the S model is perhaps justified. But when I bought a 2005 S Cab, the $10,000 difference, in addition to the more powerful engine, bought you PASM, Xenon lights, significant wheel/tire upgrade and a few other goodies. That made the actual difference in the engine upgrade more like $5,500. Today, the $14k+ difference only buys you PASM and a much less significant wheel/tire upgrade, meaning that you are really paying about $12,000 for the engine upgrade. If I was getting a Cab again, which by definition is less of a hard core performance car than the coupe, I would think hard about spending the extra bucks for the S. I wouldn't buy either without sport chrono and with the enhanced throttle response of the sport setting, the base car will certainly feel quick enough at any double digit speed.
Oddly, the price premium to go from a coupe to a cab only went from $10,500 to $11,600 from when I bought, and now includes a better looking/functioning top.
It would be interesting to see what these differences translate into relative to lease payments.

Hi fq1. Porsche Financial Services' August buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24-month lease of a 2012 991 S Coupe with 10,000 miles per year are .00200 and 57%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier. Car_man

Hi jetty56. Southern California is typically a pretty competitive market with attractive prices for new vehicles. Having said that, I am not personally all that familiar with what the market is like for the 911 in your area right now. This car has a spread of at least $8,000 between its MSRP and dealer invoice price, so there's certainly a lot more room than $1,000 to $2,000 off to play with. Whether the dealers will be willing to do so is another story. Have you tried comparison shopping with a couple of dealers? Car_man

Hi dkumar1. Porsche Financial Services' August buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 911 Convertible with 12,000 miles per year are .00200 and 57%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier. The numbers for an otherwise identical 48-month lease are .00200 and 50%.
If you were to lease with only 10,000 miles per year, this car's residual values would be 1% higher.

Hi dinoman. You definitely should be able to negotiate a larger discount on a 2012 911 than you would be able to get on a 2013 model. Porsche Financial Services' August buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2012 911 Cab S with 12,000 miles per year are .00200 and 55%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a 2013 model are .00200 and interestingly exactly the same 55%.
