I just got my ‘24 GTS in March. It was a lot of money, but also my dream car. It took me two years to get the car after deciding to make the purchase!!
Great video and very thoughtful analysis of the costs of ownership. With the exception of stroking a check for the full purchase price (which is not possible for most), an alternative is to save for a larger down payment to reduce the loan term from 72 to 48 or 36 months. This would put a sizable dent in the $300,000 total price that you referenced. Most importantly, you stressed keeping costs for the 992.2 within 15% of the total household income. To be so young, you've got it figured out!
I know you've already done the newest Mustang, but could you perhaps also cover the 2nd most expensive trim of the newest Mustang, aka the Mustang Dark Horse Premium?
It has an electric motor under the PDK gearbox. I’d need to pay for extra warranty as that’s going to be a high cost for maintenance when that inevitably goes
I think the added complexity of the new hybrid system will lead to staggeringly high maintenance costs. I made sure to get a 2024 GTS allocation earlier this year and I’m glad I did.
Are people really financing $200k cars over 6 years with 8% interest rates? I'm a huge Porsche Stan, and know the depreciation curve is slower than most, but it seems like it would be a hard pill to swallow to still be paying almost $3k a month for a 6 yr old Porsche when the 994's will out before you finish paying off the loan.
Stopped watching after 1:45 seconds. Pronouncing Porsche wrong, and all you're doing is reading it off the website. People who own a 911 or are looking to buy one are already familiar with the specs, so it's a giant waste of time. Also you're monotone, which is boring.

That’s 6013.94 per week. Suddenly used ten year old 911s are looking really affordable.
Love it!
Motorcycles would be interesting in this format as well.

What about the balloon payment at the end? Say after 6 years it’s still worth $60k then the monthly payments drop further. Sorry if I missed this.
Awesome video! Thank you for reviewing cars worth owning, and cars I can't afford. lol
Can you do the Ineos - Grenadier cost of ownership? 🤞🤞
One penny equals one cent, two pennies equals two cents. If it's more than one it's plural and ends in "S", as in cents NOT cent.

Thanks for the video! Hopefully, they keep a manual option if they go all hybrid with the other 911 models. Also, it’s pronounced ‘por·shuh’ 😉

@@RB-xv4si worth avoiding it then and go for a year or two older ?

Best person to buy this car is someone who pays cash in full right now. Not a smart financial decision to borrow and pay interest
I would have to buy my Porsche used. 😃
Cost to own = lots of money
