Thanks to Glen Fagin @ Beverly Hill Porsche & Premier Films
Warning: Long post
Wanted to take some time to share how my experiences went with a few dealers/companies during the purchasing of the Mrs. 2012 Cayenne S. Originally I sent out about 20 emails to all the local dealerships in my region asking for 7% off MSRP and some said no thanks or they couldn’t sale for less than MSRP, but 2 replied that they are willing to work on the pricing with me. It came down to Reno Porsche and Beverly Hills Porsche, but I decided to go with Reno since they gave me a better rate and it would be easier for me to pick up. Placed the deposit and spec’d the car as usual, but after a month or so I got an email that my ETA would be a lot longer than originally quoted. Called Reno and basically they told me my car would be delayed for an additional 3 months but really didn’t give me a reason why. The strange thing was they would allow me to keep my order and cancel it without losing my deposit if I changed the car color from Black to White since White was easier for them to sale… I decided to cancel my order at that time and wait it out. A few months later I contacted them back but they wouldn’t sale the car for less than MSRP anymore due to the “high demand” on the CS so I had to send my emails out again.
This time around I got a lot of replies either stating nothing less than MSRP, or we can’t sale to out of state buyers, or basically I’m crazy for even asking. Only one dealer/person took the time to call me and work on the pricing with me, Glen Fagin @ Beverly Hills Porsche. Basically he was able to give me the best discount and also met the timeframe I needed to get the CS by. He was very easy to communicate with and actually replied to several of my questions after hours via email and most importantly didn’t make it seem like I was bothering him with all of my questions during the delivery process. The CS actually arrived several weeks before the ETA date and was exactly what I had asked for. There were no hidden fees at the last minute or pushy sales tactics and overall I couldn’t ask for a smoother transaction. This was my first purchase from Beverly Hills and Glen has made it not my last.
I also wanted to thank David/Dan/Wilson from Premier Films in Fremont for working with Glen and my transporter on receiving the CS. They were able to take delivery of the car, clear bra the entire front end and tint the windows within the timeframe I needed w/o actually having me there. I picked up the CS from them a few days ago and once again cannot be happier with their work. These guys have done 4 cars for me so far (2 997TT, R8, and the CS) and their work and service have been excellent to say the least. I know their pricing may not be the cheapest out there but with clear bras you really get what you pay for and I wouldn’t take any of my cars anywhere else. .

Sorry to hear that. I sent the same emails to all the dealers in SoCal and no one else was even came close to his pricing. I also still get emails from other dealers which I am assuming are automated but I had setup an email just for the purchase so it doesnt really matter.
Either way we both got a Cayenne for a price we are happy with right?

Glen used to work at The Auto Gallery if I'm not mistaken. I bought couple 996TT's and my 997TT from him.
Real nice guy! Congrats on your CTT!!

ok I am going to give Glen a call. I've been shopping for a V6 in the last month and basically got the same response, no discount. Hopefully Glen can work some magic for me...
Anybody has any price negotiating tips please share with us. I am about to put a deposit down on a MSRP build and I would hate to find out about discounts later. Much appreciated.

I don't think that is true. I think you just need to be diligent. The discounts in SoCal for a V6 will definitely be less than an S/TT. Before I got to test drive the C and the CS (none on the lots to test) I reached out to various dealers for both and received varying ranges of discounts for both the C and the CS.

Nice. I purchased from Glen as well, he did me right and I was happy with our transaction. He'll be my first call when I'm ready for an upgrade or change, as I doubt I'll deviate from Porsche anytime soon.

stunning ride!
I remember you said you ordered your turbo wheels outside factory. Would you mind telling me where you got them from?
