Discount at Independent Porsche Specialist

[jonno999]

Hi

I am in the market for a 2nd hand 911 and have read many threads about main Porsche dealers not giving any discounts except in very special circumstances. I am planning on purchasing from a good quality independent Porsche specialist and have read also some really good comments about how professionally they operate particularly RSJ. I am looking for a 2010 4S, just wondered if anyone has any experience of negotiating the price down and what I could expect percentage wise to reduce the price by.

Any help or experience would be gratefully received

That's an impossible to answer, it depends on too many factors, how much does the dealer have in the car, is it in demand and will sell at asking anyway, is it at a quiet time of year, blah blah blah, only way to tell is to ask, I have found the only way is to have the deposit in your hand/debit card in hand ready to deposit there and then if price agreed.

Who said you couldn't get a discount at an Opc? Most are willing to deal especially if car has been in stock for a while.

You won't get a discount, but you will get a car prepared by probably the best guy in the country

There's sufficient demand for decent 997.2s, so I can understand a dealer not wanting to discount. If you want a manual car or a non-S you might stand a chance.

If you don't want to pay the price at a dealer, then look for private sales.
