Porsche price rises current and future

bludger said:

I'm interested in buying a 911 and have been monitoring the market for some months.

We've had years of easy credit and low interest rates and this has affected car values along with a lot of other things. I'm fairly sure we'll have a financial crash and recession in the next two years at most and things could get very sticky indeed and car values will be affected along with a lot of other things.

Now you can pooh pooh this but we have rates at zero so they can't be cut further and there are an awful lot of folk who appear well off but are hocked up to the eyeballs and debt levels are far higher than ten years ago.

This slowdown, which most acknowledge, could be a canary in the coal mine.

I'm waiting to buy; now is not the time.

I guess the 4C depreciation must be giving you sleepless nights?

Shaking like a shitting dog chum as I've just SORN'd it over winter :thumb:

Very nearly bought a 981 Spyder for 60 in cold last week. Good price and dealer who bought it I suspect will retail near 70 in spring :roll:

I'll buy a 981 Boxster when they're under 20 bags in the new year :grin:

As you know I am very envious of your 4C, refreshing that there are some leftfield ex Porche owners. It really isn't all about Porsche, and yes I know I'm in the minority here.

Strangely on a hot summer's day in SW France I'll choose my 2cv over the Porsche EVERY day for anything but long distance travel.

Much as I love my 993 Targa I often wonder whether I'd have been better to buy an Alpine A110 which is my long term dream car and keeps gaining in value at a ridiculous rate.

Yes through a broker in Crewe, and with Santander. Trigger is depressed.
