Careful what you wish for.This is my first Porsche so I don't have anything to compare this to. The depreciation was a benefit to me given I was able to buy one that's 3 years old at a 50% discount. I think these cars are massively overpriced and it's pretty clear Porsche does everything they can to get you to part with every cent you own. Clearly they know who their market customers are.
My other car is a BMW X5, and the depreciation on that is pretty similar so far. All luxury cars depreciate, and luxury EVs depreciate more. It's a shame that at least in the US, we seem to be digging our heels in and placating Big Oil trying to go backwards instead of progressing forward with EV infrastructure and support. Hopefully that changes with the next administration.
The main concerns I have about this car are:
-Reliability (mine's been fine but I've read the horror stories)
-Porsche's insanely slow service (1-2 days for a software update?)
-The tech is nowhere close to BMW's. My Kia had better tech, actually.
-Backup camera is laughably bad
-I have concerns Porsche will kill off the car and I'll have a high priced, low value discontinued luxury EV that no one wants.
