Interesting to hear Tesla have increased prices by up to 10% due to huge increases in Nickel and raw material costs as well of logistic huge increase in prices due to Ukraine war presumably that will also affect Porsche

the increase is set for 23" models --> 2,5 to 3,5% (salesman confirmation) as an order in EU now will put the car in line for delivery sept 22 (the car will be a 23 model - price increase included)
For US market and other will probably be greater including increase for the long distance freight / containers...

I think y'all are talking about newbuilds, right? I spoke with my SA (Sales Associate) today. He said that the price on my purchase order, which I signed on January 25, 2022, is guaranteed no matter how long my Taycan is delayed.

That might be how US orders work.. In general UK (and I beleive RoE) Porsche prices will and do rise while the car is on order. My TCT deposit was placed late Nov 2021 for delivery "probably late Dec 2022 if not early 2023" and I was warned that I would would get at least one possibly two MY increases (this happened to many UK Macan early orders due to 18 month order to delivery time periods), which is kinda "ok" as the spec generally evolves too. Many UK orders are often also made aware that depending on how the mess that is/was Brexit continues there could be a new additional UK import rate figure added.

If manufacturing costs soar due to current climate I can see Porsche in the UK passing that on to the orders. As UK buyers our position is that the deposit is fully refundable until the order / spec / manufacturing date / delivery gets locked, I dont fret about what the price might be in 11 months time as if its got orbital I will just simply pull my deposit back at lock in time and leave Porsche with an allocation they need to fulfill .. depending on what pricing has done that will be either dead nuts simple for them (as it currently is as demand is out stripping orders) or really difficult for them as perhaps a lot of UK orders will also have been pulled .. not my problem however

Chances are if Porsche prices increase - up will other marques and so will used prices.

A rising tide lifts all boats.

As mentioned - not the case in the UK.
Thread is posted in the UK section.

I can vouch that a UK orders' price is NOT fixed until build commences - no exceptions - other manufacturers do Price Hold but not Porsche

I specifically asked my dealer when dropping my deposit whether that locked in the current MSRP.

Obviously they worded it very nicely to me, but if I summarised it in two words: one would start "F", the other "O".

I'm factoring in a 10% price increase by the time my build is in (ETA spring/summer 2023).

Since I'm buying it through my company, my clients are going to see a 10% increase in fees this summer...

I need to fund it somehow ?

What is obvious to me is we are heading for the greatest recession in history. An economic domino effect will start where individuals and businesses start penny pinching in ever greater numbers and to ever greater degrees.

The world economy will go from a post-pandemic boom that is struggling to supply demand, to no demand and no supply - while the price of everything continues to increase.

This will be like nothing in economic history. Interesting times ahead.

Economic carnage is more of a concern to me than a £10k increase on my already overpriced Taycan.

a dealer in the Netherlands told me that they are expecting two price increases until October this year. they indicate that both are likely to be 3%
Luckily, the price for my January order is fixed
