hey folks,

so there is a Panamera at a Prosche dealership in Bellevue. Wanted to get expert opinion from folks on this forum on their thoughts on whether it is a good buy.

Specs attached. Dealer claims it will be in the lot to check out in 5-10 days. Any suggestions on what all to look for and any specific advantages of buying from Prosche dealership?

 

Not in my opinion. It's a base V6 Panamera, nothing particularly special inside. Look for at least a S model for that price.

And definitely test both models out so you can tell the difference. The base model is fairly sluggish.

 

cool thanks for the quick response. What would you say is a fair price for this car if i went to the dealer?

 

I don't know. I have a '13 GTS and got a base Panamera for a loaner when it was in the shop. I can't say I would buy that model so I don't know what they're going for.

 

The website does not show the 2013 nor the miles, but for the base you should look in the high $40s/low $50s and for cars with less than 30k miles

 

I live in Bellevue and picked up 2013 Panamera S, V8 with 20" Turbo wheels 37k miles for $57

 

That's a lot IMO. for base Panny not even S. Shop around for better deals, especially if you want a GTS, Turbo or better yet a Turbo S

 

Thanks Jefetica888: Mileage is 34,000 so based on that something like 46K or so then

 

Wow that is a pretty good deal Jim. Did you get the car from a dealer or private party. If you got from a dealer can you provide more details and any salesperson in particular who was helpful.
Also did you get any sort of extended warranty?

 

Elliott Bay Auto Brokers, Trey Gray was the salesperson and I got a 5 year extended warranty with it. MSRP on it was $105,400, the original sticker was laminated in the back hatch and came with the car. It just came off lease when I picked it up.

 

thanks Jim.

i will reach out to them as well. If you have more details on extended warranty (deductible, premium etc) that you can share, i will appreciate it.

 

Agree with the rest, that is high for that vehicle. Two weeks ago I picked up a 2012 Panamera 4, w/ 33k miles for $48k at Porsche Scottsdale. Added a 75k/5-year warranty for an extra $4k, so total was $52k.

awesome thanks a bunch....so the warranty covers everything (ofcourse not if you get into an accident and all) but other stuff?

 

No, you can get a 2016 brand new for that price. In December I bought a 2012 P4 that listed for $101,000 with 7700 miles for $58,500. Keep looking!

 

thanks a bunch for the input
