Where/Who did you hear this from? Sounds right though.

Are these european prices?

As for a US MSRP, these prices were posted on rennteam in two different posts by two different people...no idea on the validity of them:



I don't know if anyone has posted this yet, but I was just given the list prices in the US by my local dealer. The Carrera coupe is $69,300 and the Carrera S coupe is $79,100. They told me they have not received price guides yet.

Anyone have a definite answer?

Launch date is correct. Got the info too in an official (snail-)mail from Porsche.

I'm definitely in a spot. Just book a 996 Turbo and thinking about waiting for the 997 version to come out or even settle for a 997 C2s. Dont like the idea of losing too much on the residuals and since its going to be my first porsche, I want it to be something special. Any advise??

sic6sense....

i know how you feel. i bought my first porsche after dreaming for 26 years...it was special. now they come out with one that i like better for every reason except interior. my advise would be don't plan on your first being your ultimate forever...hopefully Porsche will continue to improve...hopefully they will listen to what we like and dislike.

more importantly, we don't worry about losing on the residuals of the shoes we buy, or the anything else we wear out. i don't get it when people buy or don't buy a car based upon depreciation indicators. if you dream of your first porsche and plan on being a real porsche owner and "driving" it, then simply get the car that you want that you can afford.

i hope this helps...good luck and "DRIVE" that car when you get it

Thanks KW4CS!

I'm proceeding with the purchase of the turbo as the dealer has knocked off a good 10% from the original offer. (I'm from Malaysia ,so price comparison obvously wont make sense to most here.FYI, car prices here are astronomical and the turbo works out to be approx USD 263,000!---wish I was living in America).

I also heard S version is $79100 for the U.S..

If this is true the S is a better bargain than the straight coupe.
