Then it’s great! I think the deep discount is attributed to the fact that you have a near base-MSRP Coupe S. I know the base Porsches are discounted a little higher at certain times to make them move. Porsche fans tend to spend good money on their cars.
It’s amazing what a Tubro Hybrid-E Coupe goes for well over 200k with the options.
Is that a marked up MF? OP stated Edmunds was showing .00200 MF and this one is marked up quite a bit. Explains the high monthly and pretty much makes that 10% discount closer to 7 or 8%.
If it’s a lease, do the Ehybrid. If you are buying, go with the S. S holds better resale value. Ehybrid gives a lot lower payment than the S on a lease because of the $6712 rebate.
Ehybrid is very reliable. I haven’t seen any issues pop up in the long term. Keep in mind that most taxis are hybrid cars. They are usually very reliable.
Strange thing to say considering that no one is telling Porsche customers to not buy Porsche in the first place. Porsche is still getting the customer regardless of lease or purchase. Does the dealer get more money if people lease Porsche over purchase?
Porsches just seem to present a far better purchase option and proposition over leasing based on the terms.
If I look at this deal and the interest rate is 4.8% vs. 72 month financing is 2.99%, no incentives in sight and you get a stronger resale value…is it not common sense to suggest a purchase?
12 month pull ahead? Have so much equity that you can get out at 12 months if needed? Car is not in the shop half the time? Doesn’t depreciate like crazy?
OP asked for this forum opinion. Opinion has been provided and explained - specifically for a lease this is a terrible deal given the markups. There is nothing wrong with suggesting options. OP will ultimately decide what he wants to do. you are free to suggest the lease and articulate your suggestion.
You sell them so I suppose you know better regarding equity, but I don’t see the math working out where you lock in a lease term predicated on a 45% RV drop and sell it back with positive equity unless you are way under your mile allotment.
I think what @fredyge94 meant is that on every Porsche thread on the forums, whenever an OP asks for help, there will always be a number of people who would just come in and just type BUY instead of Leasing… I have observed it myself on almost every Porsche post. He is simply trying to encourage people to understanding Porsche leasing better rather than just jumping to a conclusion.
Payment aside, if this is the car you want just work on the best lease deal possible.
For folks suggesting that OP finance the car instead of leasing it; at the end of the day, OP will decide what works best for them financially. If they can afford a $1xxx + payment on a Porsche, then good for them.
That is a pretty cool benefit of leasing a Porsche.
