I suggest the new car would be better overall. I say this as a 992 owner. As long as you don’t mind the quirky interior, its a bargain.

People are saying nice things in hopes of getting an allocation. Most buyers I know are not happy with the added dealer markups, fake “lines”, zero inventory at dealerships, missing options at delivery, and general smugness. Except for me, my dealer is perfect. (Still waiting for my GT3 allocation).

People can buy what “looks cool to them” and that’s fine. Aerokits are another example. But the made-up lies defending those two options are silly. You didn’t mention any so I have no beef with your decisions.

But, ceramic brakes do not stop a car in shorter distances. Braking is tire limited in Porsches. You will never detect the difference in un-sprung weight. Yes the yellow calipers are cool.

Center locks in a non-race care are unsafe because untrained people cannot maintain them properly. Eventually you will need to have a tire changed at a non-Porsche shop. Look sporty? Yes.

Sorry this happened! Since car was stationary (!!) this is a comprehensive claim, not collision, and this should not increase your insurance premiums. Delete this thread unless you do not care. Make sure to demand a Porsche Approved body shop and your car will be good as new again. Just be prepared to have it in the shop for a month or so. Insurance should pay for a rental.

Only to build a race car. Too many problems with salvage cars. A race car candidate will be stripped of most of the types of parts that would be problematic.

Sorry but your frame of reference is far too short. Porsche deeply discounted the 964 because it was priced super high at the time and sales plummeted. In fact the RS America was cheaper than the Carrera, and it had to be discounted also.

Situations like this rarely get better. You may find that the title has issues which has delayed the transfer. Unless this was a really special car to you or a great price, I would tell them you are exercising your right to unwind the deal and walk away since they failed to disclose pertinent information. I agree with other posts that there are many used (and new) Cayennes available for sale currently. New Cayennes (except for hybrids and Turbo GTs) are typically being discounted 4-6%. Its Porsche’s top selling model so supply is not an issue. If they persist demand a significant price reduction as a final offer.
