Huge jump in Cayenne numbers due to the new model. Nice to see that 911 sales YTD are up. Guess Porsche knew what they were doing as the new variations apparently sparked sales to some extent.

The 911 is showing slight gains, despite the coming of the all new 991 model. This is counter to most cases where the old model drops off as potential buyers anticipate the new replacement.
I wonder if this has always been the trend for the 911 over the last 2 decades (eg. 911->964->993->996->997) before the next gen is introduced? Diehard 911 fans are always worried that Porsche will screw up the next generation.

Panamera sales are going down every month (albeit still very high)! I guess the novelty is fading off... I hope they can fix the ugliness soon!

Incentives to dealers on the 911, I have been told 10k to a current 911 owner for trade in allowance. And some dealers are offering lease conqest money to owners to get them into a new 911.
This may be helping spark the 911 sales, I would also imagine inventories will start to dwindle soon, 2012 is a short production run and 2011's are getting picked over.

Do have any more details on the lease conquest as well as any other incentives? I have been working on a GTS lease but the dealer seems to be playing hardball.

I contacted Porsche of Fairfield. They explained it as, Porsche will cover 3 lease payments up to $4500 to get you out of a lease. The 10K trade allowance, per a salesman at the dealership ,is 5K from Porsche and 5k from the dealer to boost the trade amount.Some dealers are only mentioning the 5K and not the full 10K. Trouble is, the original trade estimates are low, and the 10k gets you to average trade, and possibly the dealer pockets the cash if the "real" trade appraisal was 10k higher to start with.
Its best to know your value, IF you plan to trade a Porsche in on a new one. I looked into this recently at a local dealership to see if the dealer REALLY wanted my trade he kept on me about everytime I was in for service.
I didn't trade and they still have the 2011 on the lot..

Thank you very much for the reply and the info. I am going to let him sit on the car for a bit longer before contacting him again (it has been a month and a half since I first talked to him and the car is still on the lot), as I don't really need the car. I will only get it if the deal makes sense. In your original post you had mentioned conquest, I am assuming that means if they bring someone from a different brand there is additional cash for the dealer in it from PCNA?
