i bought a 09TT cab about 5 months ago after i had recently purchased a 09 911 s cab. I had to trade in the 09 S and i owed 90,000 on it. The dealer (i live in Hawaii so there is only one) gave me 75000 in credit but paid the entire 90000 loan off to Porsche financing. They then added the 15000 difference to the price of the 09TT. We then took 10,000 off the purchase price so essentially i paid 5000 more than sticker due to owing so much on the 09 S that i traded in. I did get 1.9% financing though which helped a little. The dealer did offer 20,000 off the price of the TT but at 6.75% financing which would have given me the TT at 5000 off sticker price and nothing owed on the 09 S trade in but over the life of the loan it was not worth it. I was planning on buying a 2010 TT with all the goodies but the best i could do was 7500 off and around 7-8% financing with 10,000 down. There was no money down on the 09 purchase. I am kinda not sure if i got ripped off or not but i did learn that for my next Porsche purchase i am going to push the envelope a bit more on the discount. The problem is that the hawaii dealer is the only show in town. If anyone has ay thoughts or comments please let me know. Thanks much. I was at the dealer a few days ago and they still had 2 unsold (although not present) 2010 TT and a couple build slots that were unfilled.

 

I think the margin before "trunk money" is 13%.

 

Financing a $100k+ car is crazy, it seems like you are digging bigger holes as well. Cash only in that territory.

 

1.9% financing makes better sense than pulling 100 grand out of almost any investment vehicle.

I do not think they do 1.9% on new TT

 

The above poster was mentioning his deal on an 09.

; D, thanks, should read before I post....

 

Porsche Financial Services did indeed offer 1.9% financing on new '09 Turbos, as I received it on mine. Not sure what they are offering now, but it won't be far off.
