Deal check: 2025 Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo , TX

I am trying to work a deal between two offers from local Porsche dealers with very similar cars. They are a high spec with options I want.

This is the latest offer:

MSRP: 165,985
Discount: 22,500
Rebate: 7,500

Dealer services: (Working on removing these)
Stargard GPS: 1,295
Clearshield: 395
Lease end protection: 2,324

Cash down: 2,500

Trade allowance: 65,000
Trade Payoff: 65,000 (I am getting all cash back for trade, not applied to lease)

Taxes: 4,522 (Reduced with trade)

Registration: 327
Documentation fee: 150
Acquisition fee: 1,095

Balance due: 145,673

So the latest offer is a strange one, because instead of the official 56% residual and 0.0035, the offer is:

39 months
7500 miles
66% res
0.0043 MF
2,500 cash down
$2,059 per month

When I try to run the numbers myself, this is better than the 56%/0.0035.

I am getting the lease protection removed, but having a hard time with the GPS.

@CptNorway Any interest in a 2024 lease transfer?
I’m looking to possibly transfer my 2024 Chalk/black Taycan CT 4S if I can strike a deal on my next move (cautiously optimistic, but still very early in the game).

$717/mo base
$2750 cash to me
$1000 PFS transfer fee
14mos remaining (can extend)
11k miles remaining
Located in PA

Damn man… where were you last month. I just helped my gf get a car. I would’ve gave her my car and took this over :weary_face:

I guess it just blows my mind someone would pay 83k to drive a Taycan for 39 mo and 25k miles

I don’t want to jack the OP’s thread, but yes, I’m sorta getting an itch. Besides, all good things must come to end eventually

If I understand correctly taking over a lease in TX, I don’t need to pay any sales tax on that?

@Kief - potentially interested in your transfer.

Can you PM me with some additional photos of your 2024?

Thank you.

The Taycan 4s I leased as CPO was a 2022 MY. When I got it last month, it had 6,200 miles on the odometer. Someone paid $154k MSRP (assuming no Porsche markup… right…). The trade-in was around $75k. So, someone paid over $80k (when you include taxes/fees) to drive a Taycan for 30 months and 6k miles.

For the normal P-car buyer, the flex is how much they’re spending, not how much they’re saving.

I would assume Porsche dealers hate it when LH users come in looking for deals. They don’t want bargain hunters stinking up their showrooms haha.

Maybe if the lease originated in Texas and taxes were already paid.

Otherwise you’re looking at a tax bill of 6.25% of book value afaik.

Taycans went from being really hackable to super unhacked in a relative blink of an eye.

People were paying half this for Turbo and Turbo S CPOs.

Even now CPO purchases present tremendous value over buying/leasing new.

But brand new is pay to play.
