What kind of discounts are achievable on a 991.2 ?

[m33ufo]

I was having a browse around my OPC on Friday and saw quite a nice 991 Targa 4S. I admit to having a soft spot for the new Targa! Then I started playing with the configurator to see what a new one would set me back - they're not cheap! What got me more interested was that CTS is available on the 991.2

So what kind of discount should I aim for on a new one to my spec? Also, any idea on current lead-in times?

Can't help you with the discount but do you know who is getting an R from Cardiff?

I'd be surprised if you got more than 5% off a GTS, slots are in short supply and lead times are long.

I'm sure they'd be more amenable on a S.

I know someone who isn't...

No...but if it's me they've kept it a secret!

I'll call in for a chat tomorrow. I'd hope 5% was a reasonable ask.

All I have been told is that it won't be a 918 owner!

Assuming you mean GTS then no they're not available on the 991.2 not yet at least.

Porsche have just taken their time removing the 991.1 GTS from the configurator.

No, CTS...colour to sample.

Ah, my mistake.

Porsche a world of acronyms.

What colour are you looking for then?

I've got s thing for Viper Green. Should contrast well with the roll hoop.

Although the configurator won't let me spec painted interior trim in the CTS colour? A shame if that's the case.

I got 5% without much effort, however I am wanting more. My next plan is to try and get various dealers to compete for the sale, I am want 7% if a can.

I may be wrong but I think 2nd car prices have been going up for 1 to 3 year 911's as customers want none turbo engines.

I don't think run of the mill stuff will suffer too much from being turbo. But I guess only time will tell. They're still flat six. I wouldn't be so keen on a four cylinder 718.

Thanks for the info on discount.

+ 1 had my name down as soon as I heard about it!

Miami Blue available as a Special Colour on the 991.2

So half the price of CTS and I can have matching interior trim! Worth considering.

Have a look at this mark. www.carwow.co.uk

Here you can get car dealers to compete for your business and it says Porsche are onboard which I find almost unbelievable.

My mate recently bought a Merc GLE and said it worked well.

If you do have a look let me know what the findings were.

I tried them on an Alfa 4C Spyder a few months ago and they all came back at list

I'll give them a go though.


edit...they don't list Porsche.

Ah just noticed they lost Porsche in some sections but not on the one you want ... Sorry about that.

If I get a chance I'll pop in to Cardiff later for a chat although not quite the same without Ian.
