I guess this guy is fast because he has extra RWHP. Rear Wing Horsepower.

Everyone was out cruising today - saw a white Ferrari, at least 6 vettes cruising together, a group of bimmers, a threesome led by a green McLaren and included a metallic gold GTR, saw a white with blue stripes GT350. Everyone except @GSTim ! ?

The gold wrapped GT-R is local; his dad is a doctor. He lives in town off Route 31.

I helped a friend buy a Macan today. CPO 2018 Macan Base with a bunch of options. 5500 miles. $59,500 MSRP. Negotiated $41,500. She also got $6500 trade in on a GLK350 with 140,000 miles. 1.99% financing for 60 months.

Did the lack of business drive the negotiation? Or you have tips to share.

They have a glut of former loaners they are off-loading, business on CPO cars was down, and the financing was the Tier 1 national offer. Also a friend of a friend knows the pre-owned sales manager at Princeton Porsche, so a friendly name-drop probably helped cut out the BS. But yes, I think some of it was COVID pricing. They have a number of 18 Macans in the mid 40s range. The 19s got the bigger NAV screen, so every Princeton soccer mom wants the 19.

She was considering a new 2020 Q3 for $38,500, but the Porsche CPO warranty is balance of factory plus 2 years and unlimited mileage, so that and the PDK sealed the deal.

Dee's 17-inch Modas and 225/50-17 tires. Much better than the 16 inchers and she'll still have to try hard to curb them up. GLI spoiler and debadged, too.

Yep, I'm with you. It should have been debadged already!

so 59,500 was the new list price?

did she put anything down on it or just the 6500 trade in?

 

[TJYeti]

I wonder how well these high 600, 700+ HP cars keep the tires from frying. I know I need new tires on mine but a redline shift from 1st to 2nd, the tires cut loose every time

Yes, new sticker was $59,500. She put down $10,000 plus the trade of $6500. After tax/tags/doc it's $450/month for 60 months.
