Hi all. have been lurking for 6months. Lot of useful info here.

Anyways, I am looking to lease a 991 turbo. My local dealer had one in stock. It has all the options I care about except PDCC. I do not plan to track the car. I have read threads about the PDCC vs no PDCC debate.

Here is the deal I was offered:

2015 Black on black turbo
MSRP: 167,840
Selling price: 158, 900(about 5% off MSRP)
Residual: 56%
MF: 0.00230.

Was wondering if u guys think I could do better or is it pretty much what I can expect.

Thanks a bunch in advance.

5% is nothing for a stock order. You could do better on that front. What is the lease amount? 56% residual is horrible.

When I looked at 2 year least they were in the 70s.

It was for 3yr, 10k miles /yr. Nothing down.

I believe 56% residual is control by PCNA and dealer has no say. You may want to do 30 months as residual will be 59%. or if you can do 7500 miles per year it will add 1% residual to whichever term you pick. Also money factor should be .002 if your credit is 740+. 5% discount is terrible. 2016 will be here soon, I would aim for 8% if not more.

+1. Residuals are controlled by Porsche but dealers frequently mark up the MF. Ask them for the "buy rate". Also agree on price. I got nearly 8% on my 2015 in December in 2014 and the car was loaded.

I got 13% off my new 2014 991 TTS. But it was a leftover that had remained unsold for many months.

Tnx for advice ... Will talk to them tomorrow..

Your MF should be .002, not any higher. The 5% on a stock 2015 sounds a bit on the low side, but it does depend on your location, supply of TT cars in your area, how motivated the dealer is to move the car, whether you're willing to walk without a better discount, etc.

After calling around 6.5% off MSRP is the best I have found!!

eg991

Not surprised to hear that. The reports on the forum of people getting 8, 10, 12, 15% discounts are the exception, not the norm.

Also depends on time of year. I bought right before Christmas and I suspect sales are slower and dealers trying to hit end of year marks. May-Sept they sell more cars as weather is better and its perfect time for road trips/track days etc so 6.5% for a car you love is a pretty good buy. When I was on the hunt I found better deals overall on the Turbo S than the Turbo as there were far less plain Turbos around. Considering Turbo/TurboS depreciate like crazy any money off you can get up front is a good thing...Good luck

I am pretty certainly my dealer can beat that. They have beat it on ordered cars with folks from here I have sent their way.

If you want a connection to them PM me.

stlcity

Sent you a PM. Thanks

How many miles per year? I couldn't even do 15K per year. I need a specialized 20K miles per year contract. And if you want PDCC I say keep on looking. That's why I am saving up for a bespoke purchase.

But if the delta between a 991 Turbo with everything I want and a 991 Turbo S, again only difference top comes down and more power - again with with it barely being $25K more. What do I do just spend the extra $25K and get more power and fun in the sun. That is One can find a build slot. Most American's buy what's off the lot while a good portion of people in other countries build to what they like.

I built one and did not spend the 25k. I even got the centerlocks. Look is the same.
