Thats stupid, especially if it puts him in financial hardship. If it were a GT car and Porsche bumped him for a celebrity, they wouldn’t feel one bit of remorse.
Porsche will be happy to take your money at a later date.
The latest thing I read was that the blood pressure medicine (Lisinopril) that I take makes the infection much worse. Something about how it changes the shape of your blood cells, making it easier to get a bad infection. And then in the comments to the article about this, everyone says that this info sounds wrong and that the medicine should make it harder to get infected. Like I wasn't stressed out enough already.
Preliminary and not verified. Wouldn't worry at this point.
Addendum: S4to911 covered it very well and in more detail above. Kudos to him.
Getting back on topic, what I did was set aside money all last year for a new car this year. I just put it in an index fund and kept adding to that until it was time to buy the car. I ended up cashing out at the end of February before the market went totally south, so now I just kind of feel like I spent money that I would've lost anyway (on paper) plus now I also have a new car.

Same here, I cashed out at the height of the market for the car and my money for the car is sat in my brokerage account.
I'm trying to look at it as if I already bought the car, which I would have if the manuals were avail.
My estimate is that the market will rebound quickly as people will be eager to get back to their old lives. Once as vaccine comes out in a year this stuff will go away just like swine flu did.

I did have a couple of days there where I felt the dealership thought I was pulling their leg about getting the new car. I have been putting money in my brokerage account for years, but I never take any of it out. So when I sold the index fund, I found out for the first time that there's a 2 day waiting period before you can transfer the funds out of your brokerage account. And then the transfer can take a day. Meanwhile the world and the market was going to crap. I wanted to wait for the funds to transfer and bring in a cashier's check for the balance, but the dealership really, really wanted me to sign all the papers and give them a check which they promised not to cash for 3 days. I ended up giving them the check, but it really felt all wrong to write a check for so much without the funds actually being in my checking account.
The pandemic is an odd circumstance, because once the critical stage and panic have passed, there will be quick snap back of demand and the economic recovery with it. I have to say that I am really looking forward to being at that point, because everyday just sucks right now. Be safe out there!
to keep us off the corona virus **** storm, Aventurine green is looking particularly nice in this photo
Only this coronavirus black swan brings me to buy 992 only in few months after purchasing 991.2 Speedster.
No, I didn't make any money on this bear-trend, but current currencies rate predicted me price increase.
Unfortunately, that means I can’t order custom 992 as I want, but i found nice car in stock. 7% discount for current MSPR and I think 20+% lower then in 2021
If the current climate and future uncertainty coupled with paying for an expensive new car puts you in an uncomfortable position, cancel and don’t look back. No one knows how long this will last. A new 911 will be there once this all passes.
Honoring a commitment for a luxury and unnecessary car assuming it’s going to cause you hardship is a bad choice, not sure why you would need that validated by any of us here. Here’s to making the best decision for you.
I think it's time to bite the bullet and just shut everything down for 2-3 weeks so that we can nip this thing in the bud. My grandmother had a favorite expression which was, "An ounce of prevention beats a pound of cure." She also lived to be 97 years old.
My 992 4S Cab is here (got here this am hidden in a transport with 11 Cayennes). Now I will do my part to avert the recession by completing the purchase on Wednesday.

She predicted it would suddenly disappear, if you recall your Sylvia Browne! So maybe it will go away in the summer!
Spanish flu in 1918 disappeared in the same way. Once it burns through the people susceptible to it, it can't bounce around. I imagine summer will see a drop in cases, especially with a global shutdown for at least 4 weeks.
