Porsche Loaner Cars?

Just wondering what everyone’s experiences are with Porsche Loaner Cars?

The last 2 times I’ve brought my Panamera4S in, the dealer does not seem to have a loaner for me. With my CTT on the way, I don’t want this to be a common problem.

I think it depends on the dealer. Had my CTT in last week and they gave me a Panamera 4, nice ride!!

I usually get a porsche. My guy actually gives me the option, I can usually get the car in sooner if I'm willing to get an audi or toyota for a loaner. Or I can wait longer, but get a porsche loaner. I always opt for the porsche.
My only qualm with this is the last time I got a 2011 cayenne s with 450 miles on it, and it drove so quick and agile that it made my car feel like a minivan when I picked it up.

I've gotten a '10 Cayenne S a couple of times and a Panamera S a couple times. Smaller Porsche shop though...

Used to get Cayenne V6 back in 2005 when I still have a Porsche. It really depends on dealer I think. They can give you a rental car or charge Porsche NA for a comparable rental cost when give you a loaner. It usually requires calling at least a week advance to get a loaner.

My dealership always had a base Cayenne and now a base Panamera available for when I bring in my car to be serviced or have work done on(mod friendly dealer )
I once had the Panamera for a week...

Not to get personal but at the age of 29 and you have a panamera 4 s and a CTT....what the hell do you do for living?

No car if I don't call ahead, and some econobox if I do. Lexus dealerships, on the other hand, really know how to do the loaner thing properly.

My service advisor tells me if I schedule in advance, they can make sure to have a Porsche loaner for me. I'm scheduled for next Thursday - with more than 1 week's notice. I'll report what I end up with.

Last time I received a Cayman with PDK.
Time before that, it was a Jetta.

i usually get mercedes-benz cars. R350, C300, GLK350, ML 350 and BMW 328xi are the cars that I got from the dealership so far. None of them ever had more than 2000 miles on them and they are always the latest model year with almost all the options. They stopped giving loaner cars to service customers that didn't purchase the car from the dealership in 2010 and I sent a complaint letter to Porsche NA and I always get a loaner car since then
