I looked at the Porsche UK configurator earlier today. The front configurator page appears to show a new base price of £107,000.00 for the 911. I then clicked on the base model and the Carrera T. The base is still showing at £97,000.00 with the T still at £105,700.00.
After last years price increase this looks pretty brutal if we are looking at the base going up to £107k in the UK.

PAG had previously stated that another price increase was more than likely to come around Q4 2023. Fortunately it did not materialize, but many of us have speculated that it would not happen until the arrival of the 992.2.

I ordered my 911 back in August 2022, originally I ordered a base carrera and then a few days later switched to an S (before finally changing the order to a T) - the base price at the time was £89,800.00.
When I took my T allocation I was told I could waive it through and look to get a slot later in the year (I had wanted PTS). I knew that if the Q4 price increases happened as had been rumoured I'd have been priced out of PTS anyway so went with what was on offer. At the time I saw it financially as bolting through a closing door and if this price increase turns out to be correct that would definitely be the case.
Interestingly the option price has not moved during the 992.1 run while the base price continues to rise.
Wonder if it would be a good strategy for Porsche to have a lower base price increase for the 992.2 and make up the difference in increased desirable option prices.
Just had another look, Porsche have taken a lot of the prices down on the configurator model page, therefore, the cheapest one that does still have a price listed on that page is the carrera cabrio at £107k. I'm guessing that's why the 911 is currently showing a starting price of £107K.
For the prices to be taken down I expect a rise is indeed imminent but maybe not as much as intially thought (a fair degree of wishful thinking on my part there). I'll just watch with interest and be grateful I got an allocation, when I ordered back in August 2022 I was told to expect an 18 to 24 months wait with 24 months being the most likely, that could have spanned two price increases rather than the one, scary thought that - looks like my T is a keeper
My 2021 C2S had a base of about $117k with $23k in options coming in a hair under $140k.
A current C2S configured the same has a base of $131k with options now at $24k for a total of $155.5k. $15k+ more for a car 3 years later with an updated PCM.
Indeed, this is why when they tell you inflation is 3.4% - it's laughable. Last week, I got a whole pizza, salad, drink, tax and tip - $50. And that was paying in cash to save the 3% surcharge.

It's important to see the forest from the trees.
While inflation does influence price increases, the primary driver is the pubco's focus on generating shareholder value.
Porsche is a cash cow and it's milking it's 75 year history for all its worth.
Expect models and options to become more abundant and expensive.
I would be surprised if prices ever came down in the future.
There are many markets that are extremely underserved.

Yep. Porsche will keep moving further upmarket. The new electric Macan 4 with options is a $100,000+ car already. And that’s supposed to be an entry level model into the brand once they drop the gas cars.
