European delivery
From reading the posts, many feel European tourist delivery and chance to visit factory sounds like a great experience.
Seems Porsche does not give discounts for European delivery, does anyone know what it cost to get European delivery for a 2013 Cayenne?

Hi Tom
I have had 3 european deliveries
2 for 997tts in Zuffenhausen(Stuttgart) and the last one in Leipzig for my 2011 CT
I payed extra all 3 times,but now its free
Included is 15 days of European registration,insurance and roadside assistance
..with you paying for any additional time(up to 6 months) at a cost of about US1200$ per month
For any Porsche aficionado,visiting the place where your car is designed and built feels a little bit like coming home
The welcome in Leipzig turns into a very fun day
First you meet your car,then a driver takes you around their track for a few fast(or "hot" as they like to say)laps...with their youngest(and most talented)driver even fond of asking right away:"do you enjoy drifting?"
Then your driver takes you around their impressive off road track(about 16 miles)
Afterwards you head up to their panoramic restaurant(view of the tracks and grounds) for a delicious lunch
Then you are invited for personalized factory tour(mine lasted almost 4 hrs!)
And last but not least,being able to hit the Autobahn right after with your car feels priceless
Her's a pic of my CT in front of the iconic Porsche Leipzig customer center/shop/restaurant/museum

Jerry is bang on!
Tourist delivery is an excellent experience!
Plus you get to tell people you picked up your car at the factory
Our next Porsche will be via European delivery!
I would highly recommend it to anyone buying a Porsche.

Driving the back roads of Germany, Austria and Switzerland, not to mention the Autobahn and some of the spectacular alpine passes is a great way to experience your new Porsche. Not to mention the opportunity to drive on the N-Ring. But be warned it is addictive. Cheers!

Thank you Jerry for pics and information- I agree it looks and sounds great. Your machine looks great as well!
i was told at dealer that there is currently a charge of $3000, surprised me since web site lists it as a zero cost option. BMW and Mercedes give you 4-5 % discount. I am curious if this is a dealer charge or a Porsche charge?

I am finalizing euro delivery on a 2013 cayenne and here is what I have been told:
-ED is no additional charge to the customer
-porsche charges the dealer 2995 for ED
-you can return the vehicle at many locations in Europe, but unless it is Stuttgart or Leipzig, a fee does apply
-also if you return the car anywhere besides Stuttgart or Leipzig, it will take up to 2 additional weeks to receive your vehicle stateside
Looking like Leipzig in early September-should be fun.

Great Pics Jerry and Rocci!!
Makes me want to go back again now!
We paid the option price for ED (about $1200 CDN), there were no additional fees from the Dealer or PCNA for this option.
No idea why the dealer should be adding cost to take the order. It's a sold unit, with no possibility of return once you pick it up in Germany. No risk of sitting in stock as you can't bail on the order. Plus you get a customer with amazing brand loyalty!

Just got back in states after my European delivery of CTT and 15 day drive around Europe. The EU delivery is and should be free. The dealer does pay the $3K but they get extra allotment of a car so the profit they make over the $3K is just that=profit. I started a blog at: eurpor.blogspot.com but later just put the pictures on Picasa as we were too busy to blog. 7 countries, 3800 kilometers covered was fantastic experience.
