Replying to: vwguild1 (Aug 03, 2007 10:54 am) Was at my dealer today and saw a Meteor Grey with sportchrono and a couple of other options for around $128,000. There will likely be no discount on a 2008 ordered, so if that or a similar car could be purchased for a $10k discount, that's a lot of nice dinners. I got a $10k discount on my 2005 C2S Cab and the only significant option it came with that I wouldn't have ordered was the sport exhaust. And, as fate would have it, that's now one of my favorite options. Everybody's math is different, but there do seem to be a few leftover Turbo's hanging around to potentially negotiate on.

Replying to: habitat1 (Aug 03, 2007 2:45 pm) ownership of a car that wasn't EXACTLY perfect for me...additionally at that pricepoint the $10K is not really even relevant...We had two Turbo Coupes in stock last quarter because both clients had either changed their minds or experienced some reversal of fortune...We sold the first one to a guy that had just inherited a bundle, and the second to a gentleman that had previously had 4 Porsches and bought a Corvette...this was in May...712 miles later he bought the Turbo on July 22nd, and we now have the Vette. Both Turbos nicely, but not lavishly equipped, as you indicated you had seen. But, you are certainly correct..."everybody's math is different"...

Replying to: vwguild1 (Aug 04, 2007 10:05 am) I agree, but perhaps we have different definitions of "exactly". For me, in the case of the Turbo, it would have to be a 6-speed manual, in one of 2-3 colors / interiors, come with the sport chrono option and not be loaded up with the cosmetic stuff. At that point, a $10k discount would be just about perfect. I do agree with your point in another way, however. My wife and I looked at 100+ new homes over the course of the last 18+ months. Nothing was "exactly" what we wanted, typically with the builder offering more quanity of square feet than we need and way less construction and finish quality than we want. But most importantly, no real architectural inspiration, except in a couple of cases, that were in the wrong location. So we bought a tear down house, hired an architect and will be spending 16 months designing and building a Frank Lloyd Wright Prairie style house. I have that kind of patience and passion for a house. But Porshce did well enough with the 911 that getting close to my preferred configuration and driving away with the car at a significant discount was my choice rather than waiting 4+ months and getting the EXACT configuration at full price. |

| has anybody here tried driving a c4s in the winter and if so what tires did u use? | |
Hi Car Man, I want to lease a basic 911 coupe, tiptronic, power seats, bose, floor mats, heated seats, and right now I can't get any dealer to drop below MSRP on the car. The best quote I have for 36 months is $5,000 down, $1282 plus tax ($1388) for 10,000 miles a year. I am finding it hard to shop the deal as porsche dealers seem reluctant to give numbers over the phone, andI know I will get an initially high quote if I go in to each dealership. Trying to save time AND money here. How can I get leverage here to negotiate down? Given the money factor for lease is this a good deal I am being offered or not? Any help greatly appreciated! OH and I am in SoCal. Thanks

Replying to: vwguild1 (Aug 15, 2007 12:38 pm) Yes, I talked to the salesperson who sold me my 2006 C2S, recently , and he related that the number of cars being shipped and available build slots for the " S" have been greatly decreased by Porsche ( 997 )... ( I live in North County San Diego, CA ). With the flush pockets that Porsche now has and the complaints about the excess production ( thereby increased depreciation ) in previous years ( 996 ), maybe Porsche is protecting my investment.. I hope so. Chromedome
