Some invest in wine, others in the stock market or in real estate. Investing in a Porsche sometimes brings together some of these interesting factors: driving a work of art, which will increase in value over time, like fine wine.
Become the owner of the Porsche Classic of tomorrow.
The Porsche brand is a value in itself since it is one of those rare manufacturers who convey a mythical image. It is also a prestigious brand that is constantly progressing in the collection market since it represents a timeless icon through its track record in competition.
Moreover, the Porsche market has never been so interesting, and the years to come promise to be even more prosperous. You can see it for yourself. The classified ads of various sites in Canada and Quebec such as: Porsche Finder, Kijiji, LesPac and Auto Hebdo rarely display a Porsche more than a few days before it takes off, and this, at remarkable prices.
Is investing in a Porsche a good financial investment?
The depreciation of a vehicle is what costs the owner the most, so it is essential for the consumer to check the "residual value".
Although the Porsche brand is still one of the brands with one of the best residual values according to JD Power, it is still possible to double or even triple your bet with certain rarer models.
How much should we invest?
The answer is the same as in finance. It all depends on your investor profile and your budget, but it is possible to get a good deal with both a new vehicle and a used vehicle.
The ideal way to optimize potential gains is, on the one hand, to maximize the budget if your coveted vehicle is a sports car (Taycan, 911, 718 Cayman & 718 Boxster and Panamera), and on the other hand, to select more dynamic options. The more limited series with a very sporty configuration have a very good residual potential in the medium and long term.
Even with a Macan or a Cayenne, this type of scenario is not implausible, indicating the configurations most likely to have a positive impact on the residual value is also one of the priorities of the sales consultants at Porsche Centre Quebec.
It is possible to find a rare pearl in an individual, but if this is the avenue you have chosen, know that it is more than advisable to know yourself. The difficulties that can be encountered with certain individuals mean that the latter, often blinded by the emotional value of their Porsche, can be tempted to overestimate it.
Moreover, the private individual, for whom speculating on the resale of a used Porsche is not supposed to be the job, will not necessarily be able to offer you all the technical and mechanical expertise, which it is imperative to have beforehand. an acquisition of this kind.

What precautions to take after purchase?
- Acquire a Porsche protective cover to properly protect the paintwork of your vehicle during storage.
- Acquire a Charge-O-Mat Pro intelligent charge maintainer to protect the vehicle's battery during storage.
- Ride regularly. This preserves seals and other consumables (tires and brakes). A Porsche that drives very little or not can see some of its parts deteriorate and thus lose part of its value.
- Comply with the maintenance scheduled by the manufacturer. On the one hand, in order to preserve the quality of the parts of your vehicle and, on the other hand, to demonstrate your seriousness when reselling it. A Porsche with an impeccable service history will always sell better and more expensive than a Porsche whose maintenance has not been carried out, or carried out in a non-certified Porsche workshop.
- Consider acquiring a Porsche Scheduled Maintenance Plan (PSMP)
