That is probably a pretty fair deal...I can tell you there are not a bunch of T 4S / T 4 GTS models on the market (keeping in the "new or CPO" category). You might push a bit more, but realistically you will probably cap out at 6%. FWIW, I got 6% off a new 18 T4 GTS in July 2018...
Good luck, and what I can tell you, if you find one you like, I would move on it...they don't stay around too long...I would actually be curious as to the build...you are almost in GTS $$$ @ $155K.

I would want more off of that car, not a penny over $145k, and that's assuming the options are good and aren't full of bloat. By the time you take possession of the car, you'll have lost almost a year of warranty. Oh, and if you buy an executive car, make sure that they agree to show it as a NEW car on the sales/titling documents. I bought a left over, never titled, warranty punched, demo car with 300 miles on it once, and the paperwork showed it as a USED car purchase. I was pissed but the dealer claimed that's how they had to show it, even though the car was never titled.

Where is the dealer located? Its nearing the end of the driving season if its near you in NY. His pricing seems pretty steep to me. I tend to think something more in the 7-9% off range would be in order since it has 1650 miles on it and will soon be a model year old. His discount seems stingy even if it had an extended CPO warranty included (which I assume it does not).

I don't care what his proposed discount is....I disregard that....I think a good offer is $140K which is 10% off....thoughts ?

The partial loss of warranty is significant. I would offer 140 which I think is very reasonable and absolutely not go over 145K (even that is high, only ~7% discount). If you were selling/trading the same car to a dealer, you'd be lucky to get 125K.

GTS allocations are hard to find, especially for a Targa, but my SA has one more Targa GTS allocation ( I got one from him), which would be discounted, just as he has for several of us here. The dealer is in Florida so you would have to get a dealer close to you to do a Courtesy Delivery (Porsche pays the dealer for the PDI). Otherwise you would have to pick it up in FL or at the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta.

I just saw the T4S in question and it caught my eye.
Would make more sense to inquire about ordering new if I can get that sort of discount.

Wes is right, what a trip that would be, starting at the Porsche Experience Center of course!
I looked all over for months for the right car and I am just too picky when it comes to colors and options to buy pre-owned so I had to order a new one. If your dealer cannot get you an allocation let me know and I will pass along the contact info, or if they will offer a nice discount. Keep in mind that allocations are getting very scarce so if you are serious I would advise looking it sooner than later.
