Exactly. I’m fully aware I’m being shafted.
I am on waitlists at the three Porsche dealerships in my area for a year now. I’ve already lost an allocation and a Targa GTS. Seems I’m about to lose this one because I don’t want to get shafted.
Do you have any better ideas than “shop around” or “keep waiting”?

Sorry, missed it. I think they’re just trying to hit the right numbers to convince you. But S allocations are going for around $10-20k ADM now (in SoCal market where I’m at) so they gave you a lower ADM at $10k but are knocking a bit more off of your trade. Do note that it costs them a few thousand to sell the car as certified since it adds 2 years of warranty and then they wanna try to make money on it too.
So, in your view, $7,500 ADM for the C2S and $19k below MSRP for my C2, is a good deal?

Ask to take the S without the trade? You can surely do better just taking it to carmax. May be sales tax implications to that depending on where you live. Have you shopped carmax, webuyanycar? Asked dealer about consignment?

Not worth it if it was me. That's a $20K difference considering the full PPF. Getting a tune would put the C2 at or above C2S power, unless there's something missing from the C2 that you must have in the C2S. I'd like to know.

It pains me to say yes, but in the current market, yes. It’s the same as if they said $15k ADM on S order (seems to be the average ADM for S in SoCal) but only $11.5k below MSRP for your S. That’s really not a crazy deal for THIS current market.

I didn’t build this car. It was at port when I passed by the dealership March of last year. They said “get this while you wait for your allocation. You won’t lose much in your trade”… 😥

If my hot head doesn’t end-up making me stand-up and leave as I’ve done in the past…😅

On the last allocation (which I lost) I tried the CarMax route. The Porsche dealership priced the trade-in right at the level where the lost tax advantage would put the CarMax deal at a disadvantage. Also tried Givemethevin (probably similar to “webuyanycar”). Same deal as CarMax.

Thanks @SS22. Much appreciated. I’m going to the dealership on Friday. I’ll report back on what deal I’m able to negotiate in the end.

My dealer does it by charging you the fee to make it certified and deducting 5% off whatever price they sell the car (they let you have a say in what price they list the car too).

The used price is probably in the right ballpark because they have to make money on the resale. Tell them to pound sand on the ADM and they have a deal.

Godspeed! Just remember new 2023 pricing will probably increase 5-6% and at some point for MY 2024, it’s very possible we see .2 (which you may or may not like better but it’ll likely have a negative impact on .1 prices).

Thanks again @SS22, very helpful advice. Honestly, the impending release of the 992.2 also worries me. What if it’s better? But what if it’s worse? Heavier hybrid, or the other thing mentioned in this forum (which I honestly can’t remember). I’m sure whatever facelift they do will be awesome though.
