AS its a lease, no reason why you wouldnt enjoy the incentive package...

 

+1 kip ^.

Some of the responses ITT are downright comical. "Negotiate a Turbo or lawyer up"? "Willing to replace the transmission"? "CARFAX"??

It's under warranty guys, get a grip.

OP: Sorry to hear - that really takes the wind out of your sails when getting a new car. Hopefully PNA can make you forget this happened. Sounds like they intend to make you happy if they're offering incentives! If you're going to swing for the fences, at least ask for the GT3 cup experience school

 

So I am wondering. Would the leasing company pull a Carfax at the end of the lease to see what if any accidents etc you would have accumulated and DING you for the transmission change if they would consider this to be an issue reducing the resale value of that car?? I am thinking Leasing companies too have some Lawyers that make a living..

 

If it was a lease I wouldnt give a rat's ***. This is the only reason I would consider leasing this car.

No at the end of the lease, even if the car had everything replaced at the mechanic next to your house, they should not charge you anything extra. If you have dings, scratches, wear and tear, then yes. Not because you got a new engine, or transmission, or windshiled for that matter.

It runs, its theirs.

 

I just received the fault transmission light on my 2012 Porsche Panamera with only 43,000. I will be taking it in for service on tuesday to see whats the issue...I'll keep everyone in tune

 

How did you get a 2012 with practically no millage? Seems unusual to me.

Sorry about that.

 

PDKs occasionally fail, not often, but occasionally. If you're under a CPO program you're good to go. Swap the tranny. Pay nothing. Get incentive package...maybe ask for free service for 2 years? How long is your lease?
Or- get $2k discount on your next Porsche.
PDK's can be swapped and you'll be good to go.
