What Discount on New 2018 911 Turbo ?

.


I'm in the market for a new 2018 911 Turbo Coupe (non-S).

What kind of discount can be expected for these?

Thanks in advance.

Depends on your relationship with the dealership. 911 Turbo allocations are a little tight, don't expect much unless you are a repeat customer that has a good relationship with a dealer. I would shoot for 5-7% as a realistic goal.

You just have to look at the allocations. 911s in general are not a 'mass market' car of course but as you climb the model hierarchy, the allocations that a given dealer gets become less and less. A high volume Porsche dealer might have 2 911 Turbos for sale at a given time, and once you factor in whether or not you want a cabriolet, your choices are then halved. 911 Turbos are $180K+ cars, a great many of them are ordered to spec for that reason. You might strike a deal for a leftover 2017 that is still sitting around but getting a dealer to drop his pants on a 2018 is not likely.

Depends on the dealer- I've talked to 3 of them, all different answers. One dealer- no discount whatsoever, and I've bought 2 cars from them in the past.
Another dealer- nearly 4%- and believe you me I'm going thru that one.

GT3's are going at a +$25k markup from MSRP, at least. And for me that's a no-go, especially when you consider practicality.


For me, a Turbo is the better all-rounder and nearly as fast on the Ring.

And I can tell you, allocations are indeed tight. Maybe 4 to 8 available in the country...and this applies roughly to GTS's as well.

Old info but I got 6.5% on an ordered 2015 in late 2014. I had to shop around a bit and drive 14 hours to get it but if you're determined... This was a major dealership in Dallas. I lived in NM at the time.

The 2018 allocations for turbos are very small. My dealer, one of the largest in the mid-west, is getting 3 cars this year. He's not discounting at all...

I've heard discounts were stronger in 2017 and Porsche was unhappy with that situation.
They are producing less cars for 2018 so discounts will be less for this year.

Porsche's Marketing Philosophy:
If demand is for 10 cars,
Only produce 8 cars.

Gotta love it!

There’s not much negotiating room with these cars. My cousin’s husband just bought a Turbo S cabriolet here in L.A. and he got 5% off.
