Hi Everyone,
I got a lot of helpful advice on ordering a 991 Cab a couple of months ago.
After taking everyone's comments into consideration, I decided I would be more comfortable with a C4S than a C2S.
People pretty much persuaded me to go for an S over a 3.4.
Anyway now Iam ready to order I have spoken to my local OPC, they say they have nothing available until mid year, hence no discount at all. They have also been very friendly and helpful in fairness. Whilst this may be their position, the projected value on a 911 is just no longer high enough to be reasonable to expect people to pay full list.
On the Porsche web-site there is already a February delivery C4 Coupe being advertised by a dealer a £8,000 below list price. Generally C2S cabs are being advertised at 6-8 months old at 15-20,000 below list. From my research I would say that 20,000 off list should be quite achievable on a 6 month old car.
Thus while getting exactly the spec I want and being the first owner is attractive, I justy can't get past the feeling that a little patience will save me a substantial amount of money and am trying to not let my heart over-rule my head.
I know Porsche have cut production and allocations are lower this year than last year, but has anyone else had conversations with OPCs re availability of the C4S cabriolet. It seems odd that there are already 8 dealer C4 coupes being advertised but no cabs.
I know some people find it cheeky to ask about discounts but if anyone has any useful info for me I would be very grateful.
Thanks
