Yep, very reasonable to assume this is the case. I mean, logically, replacing carbon fiber wheels ($14,980) would cost more to insure than my standard aluminum wheels.
I was told there is a $50 deductable if I needed to get new wheels, and can even have them shipped to my local town and installed here, rather tha drive 120 miles to my dealership to have new wheels installed.
I paid $3500 to insure the carbon fiber wheels. I have no idea if that is a good deal or a bad deal but it is less than the cost of one replacement wheel.
The carbon wheels were likely a dumb purchase financially speaking but given the cost of the car to begin with, I just swallowed all common sense and plunged ahead.

Yeah, me too. I ordered the CF wheels and I was wondering what they were going to ask me to cough up for the wheel/tire insurance. My TTS is finally on a truck and inbound as of yesterday, so I expect I'll be sitting in that little glass office listening to the pitch for all those add on packages sometime this weekend...
I got the extended wheel and tire insurance for my new Porsche 991.2 and it cost me $2,860 dollars. Been wondering if that was a good deal? Any thoughts?
1900 for my RS .....sorry you will see my post .....responded to wrong person.
This thread is completely off track - sorry - but after seeing these CF wheels on my new car that was just unloaded from the truck this morning, I'm going to seriously consider the wheel/tire insurance.

4-6 percent is really strong, sounds like a great deal to me, and the new turbos are a good year and a half out from actually landing in the states or more given the carb delays they will go through. I LOVE my 19! They are pretty rare to boot. Only a few hundred.
Yes, the Turbos do depreciate faster than anyone probably likes as it is real money, and even if 992 is NOT seen as anything appreciably better the new model almost always accelerates the depreciation curve on the old style of that model...for us that buy CPO cars that is a good thing.....looking forward to a turbo s with hybrid in a few years....
Lol, if the 992 turbo gets the same reviews as the 992S, you will see a substantial drop in prices for a prior iteration.(991 and 991.2)
I disagree. Assuming the 992 TTS price is hiked as much as the 992S, then I think the depreciation curve of the 991 TTS will not change significantly. If the base price is around $190 like the 2019 model, then the values will be affected.
Yes, that would be the clincher, if the price moves between models.

I decided I rather have a 991.2 over a 992. I found a new 2019 fully loaded turbo S cab with a 235k sticker. Dealer is offering 6% off.
Doesnt sound like a great deal considering the 992 but wanted some thoughts.
Does it have the CF wheels?? A heavily optioned one will have higher discount. Makes sense. Doesn't sound too bad. I got about 4% but my TT really only has the PDCC and Burmester and a sunroof. The rest were low cost options.
