V999

I'm here to help you with an easy solution to this. Sell the wife (and children, if any). This will permit you to set the budget as high as you wish while simultaneously helping to fund that effort.

What wife, I bought my car over 100k without telling her, she asked for divorce I said go ahead and file, nothing happened. Now I have both the Porsche and the wife but I don't know for how long.

I would expect the price to drop on a new 2019 991.2 (and used 991.1); however, the new model selection with the desired options to shrink as we approach the 992 showing up on the showroom floor. I recently purchased a new 991.2 mid January versus waiting for the 992 per the aforementioned point.

If you desire a new 991.2, time is running out.

That's funny. I actually bought my 991 Turbo S without telling my wife. I won't make that mistake again. It wasn't a really big deal, but she scolded me a bit for it. She also told me that she would have said "yes" anyway, so there was no reason not to ask her.

I think that the 991 cars will continue to slowly come down in price, just like every generation before them. I wouldn't expect them to drop like the 996 series cars did, because the 991 is generally viewed as a beautiful, desirable car. As they age and more cars hit the market with a few miles on the odometer, prices will fall.

Took me 6 months of searching an hour or two a day, every day. But a couple months ago bought this, thanks to the fantastic help from this group. Had similar parameters as you. 40k miles on the car, $61.5k. Sport chrono, pdk, sport exhaust, pasm, yada, yada, yada.

I might add, the good well-equipped 991.1s sell FAST! So, if you find what you want, be prepared to make an instant offer.

My SA me that he has had a lot of requests for 991.2s since the 992 came out. He had a 991.1 and .2 on the pre-owned lot, closely spec'd, and everyone that drove both liked the 991.2 better. The the average Joe (or Jill) on the street could care less about N/A or turbo since if they are looking for a fast sports car the 991.2 is the fastest on a test drive. And more than not seem to dislike the appearance of the 992 compared to the 991.

There seems to be a growing trend of 991.2's being built and delivered faster than usual. Mine appears to be arriving at the dealership about two months earlier than scheduled, including an unexpected one week wait at the port here in the US for some unspecified issue (dinged up, or whatever). I've seen others here on RL posting about their car arriving ahead of schedule as well.

Perhaps Porsche wants to clear out the production lines and make whatever changes are necessary for the 992s.

From your lips … I was just informed that the initial March 8th ETA for mine will likely be closer to the end of March !

Prices will definitely drop, and if I was in the market for a Porsche now, I would wait till 992 is launched and then shop at that time.

I think a lot of Porsche owners who are criticizing the car will end up buying it after test drive as it will be an upgrade over the current model.
