Hi Hasan Sounds a great combo to me rather than boring black.
Wouldn't be my cup of tea....or cocoa for that matter[

The OPC have informed me that they are RAISING the prices on the 2 cars I'm interested in from tomorrow as their quarter is ending tonight. They've been very helpful by emailing me some photos of the hood and interior just now but the deal they offered me ends tonight. I'm lost for words.....raising prices?ORIGINAL: tscaptain Yep. I know the PDK doesn't float everyone's boat but I love it

I've seen that combo on a Boxster, personally I loved it.. but I'm nearly on that sort of spec now, Cocoa/Meteor I would say it would alter the resale slightly as its not as easy for the dealer to shift as in black/black or Silver/black, however many people are after something different from the norm... I have actually seen plenty of GT/Cocoa so its not an exception. Raising prices maybe, but just remind them the residuals have just dropped the price anyhow as another year/month clicks over [
], I think its scare tactics garyw

Hi Gary, I completely agree that it could have been a tactic to get me to put down a deposit as the £13k to trade up would run out tonight apparently! He said they were making a loss on the car and the price and my offer was to bolster December sales which finished today. As of tomorrow, they are raising the price of the car in an attempt to make a profit on it again I assume!...which I find admiringly bullish but ultimately a bad move as they haven't sold it for 2 months atleast. I think it's quite funny actually. I think I would have gone for it regarding cocoa interior with a black hood...but the cocoa hood looks like it won't age very well. I can imagine that hood in 3/4 years time looking like it had spent too much time in the sun! Onwards and upwards, plenty of cabs out there hey?

Well just wait until: 1. Porsche continue to cut production. 2. They realise that Euro/Pound parity is hitting the GB hard and put prices up, just like BMW have now done.. 3. The market turns the corner. I think prices in the medium term will actually rise [
]I heard from the dealer I purchased mine from that Porsche are cutting back on new builds 30% this year too hold residuals on the market. Maybe this is why pre owned prices may rise slightly ?????[8|] Hasan if you get the car at the right price whats to stop you changing the hood color at a later date/ORIGINAL: HasanThe OPC have informed me that they are RAISING the prices on the 2 cars I'm interested in from tomorrow as their quarter is ending tonight.

Hi Hannu, I think the hood on these things are very expensive so that would be uneconomical to do? Interesting to note that they haven't raised the price of the car on the Porsche Car Locator yet......hmmmm [&:]ORIGINAL: HannuI heard from the dealer I purchased mine from that Porsche are cutting back on new builds 30% this year too hold residuals on the market.

Talking of production cuts I think you'll see by mid 2009 that every single manufacturer will have significantly cut production of new cars. This is probably a unique period we are in now as there is a huge surplus of new cars due to demand suddenly dropping off a cliff hence some of the incredible deals to be had on new cars at the moment. Once supply drops off to get back in line with demand I suspect deals will be not so good. Ian.
Neither would I, like you said earlier there are plenty of other cabs out there. £52k sounds a bit optimistic (that is a 2006 car, right?)[
] My former 2007 C2S with 7k miles is only up for £54k[] Regarding other posts about 2009 car prices/supply etc it comes back to the old "cost to change" arguments previously discussed hereabouts, no? Unless you're that lucky first time buyer[]
