Porsche options that have impact on p/x value?
Discussion
I was told my my local dealer that the only thing that affects the baloon MGFV when financing is PDK... unlike other marques e.g. BMW which take into account other options e.g Nav, Leather etc..
I know that perhaps sometimes it's model specific where some options will have a bigger impact on value when p/x'ing e.g. buckets on Cayman R, GT3 etc..
On main stream models does anyone in the "know" have an idea if any options on a Porsche that you get additional funds come p/x time and how much of a % do you get back on it?
For example... if you spec up PCM circa £2k come p/x will you get say £2k more for your p/x which would deem this option as a "no brainer" but is that really what realistically happens? I know some options will get you nothing in return e.g. Rear Wiper or Alu fuel cap...
We are mostly aware that options make a car more desirable when we are looking to buy but do dealers really give you that much more for certain options... for example if someone was to load their Porsche up with £10k of options (which is easy) will you really get a good % of that back in return?

I have noticed a big difference with prices for similar age cars on OPC forecourts due to specification and additional options but I wonder if dealers when bidding for your car ignore this fact so that they pay less for your car and make a bigger markup when selling on...
I guess it's a little bit harder pill to swallow when ordering new and thinking that every optional extra you order will be worth near enough zero come p/x time!
