Hi all,
new to this forum and 911 ownership this week.
I spent the last few months lurking and learning from you all. I still know very little about the 911 religion but am very excited to convert !
I had to search in 300-500 mile radius from NYC and there is inventory but not much . Discounts 5-5.5% the most on 2018 base and S.
ended up looking at two local 2017s instead as the long distance buy logistics did not align with changing work schedule.
i did not like the Carrera S color although it was 20k off a MSRP and punched in last month for warranty. Under 30 miles.no Sports Chrono.
So i ended up with a new but 2017 Base Carrera with 40 miles at 22k discount but punched in 16 months ago. No heated multifunction wheel. I talked them into the CPO 6 year unlimited so now I come out ahead. They changed battery and oil on my request as it sat on lot for over a year. and looking ahead CPO also covers 1st year maint. Which is not offered on 2017s.
so most 2017s will have some minor or core option missing or a unique color. But if one can compromise then great deals are there to buy, not lease.
after 5 days I have driven 500 miles locally and want to sleep in this car ,

Those of you bragging about the great discounts need to name the dealers.....if not I question your veracity.

If someone negotiated a nice discount on an ordered car please drop me a PM and fill me in. I can take delivery at the Porsche Experience in Atlanta so it does not matter who in the US I order from.

I found quite a few dealers that offered me a discount on an order here in FL but I wound up ordering from a dealer in CA for a better discount - PM me if you want a referral.
