hi there,
First time poster, and any advice greatly received. I am close to pushing the button on a new 991 GTS cab. this would be the first time i've ordered a new porsche, after the previous 3 were bought used. My question is what sort of discount i should push for? the OPC has offered 3%, which seems a bit paltry given the gen 2 991 isn't far off now. Should I be holding out for more?

Back in the day when I ordered my last brand new Porsche (2005) I couldn't get any discounts and I was pretty good at playing hard ball. Guess things may have changed now? One of the reasons I have since bought used ones, where you can definitely negotiate at an opc.

Which OPC? I Purchased a GTS coupe in Jan for April delivery and got the equivalent of 9%....

Options will add greater flexibility for the dealer as they have an 8% margin in the standard car....

PCCB, PCM will enjoy a better than 9% margin for the PC - probably twice as much.

GAP insurance enjoys a mega % margin

That's about 13% discount. I thought the dealers only had about 8% to start with? confused

Yes, sorry I deleted my post as the car I was referring to was a physical car spec'd by the OPC for immediate delivery so who knows how a 13% discount works in that instance.
