Pretty much no Porsche is worth the price new. People usually don’t cross shop a Porsche because anything else you compare it to will always be a better value. A Porsche is an emotional purchase, not a practical one. You buy a Porsche because you want a Porsche.

I heard 911s keep their value really well. That's not a bad Porsche to buy new. Now their SUVs and sedans are another story.

IMHO I Have to , respectfully, disagree. Porsche has a build quality that most other vehicles simply cannot compare with. Down to the quality of the switches on the steering wheel. In addition, their “policy” of refinement over redesign makes it so your vehicle does not look “old” after a few years. Unlike some other premium brands, they still sell a solid product for the price.

You’d be pissed off if you bought a Porsche Taycan because you wanted a Porsche and looked under the skin finding the Audi rings on loads of its parts 😂😂😂😂😂😂

We recently cross-shopped the Mach-E against its Audi and Porsche counterparts. All of them were great vehicles, fun to drive and family friendly (not always the case for a Porsche). In broad strokes, the Q6 Sportback was about $20k more, and the Macan was another $20k on top of that.

I liked the Q6 just fine: slightly better than the Mach-E in some areas, worse in others, about the same overall. If the prices had been close, we frankly might have gone with the Q6 just for variety rather than another Mach-E.

The Macan was a no-go for me. Porsche has taken a philosophical stance against one-pedal driving, suggesting they simply don't "get" EV's. Now, I love three-pedal driving in a gas-powered 911 -- wow, that's a true driver's car. But to insist that its EV's must emulate the two-pedal driving experience of an automatic transmission? No, thanks.
