Introduction

This video by Brad Danger from the Ideal channel discusses affordable Porsche models likely to appreciate in value. He reviews various Porsche sports cars, SUVs, and other models, highlighting their potential for appreciation and providing price ranges.

Key Takeaways

• 996.1 911: A hidden gem, appreciating significantly (nearly 40%), especially those with LSD (limited-slip differential). The 996 Carrera 4S ("poor man's turbo") is also a good option.
• 997.1 Carrera: Mechanically improved (IMS bearing, bore scoring issues addressed in later models), offering reliability and an unmatched driving experience. Prices are still in the $30,000-$40,000 range.
• 987.2 Cayman: A driver's dream with a reliable engine (9A1), eliminating the IMS issue. Prices hover in the low $20,000 range.
• 987.2 Boxster: Shares the Cayman's strengths but adds convertible features. Even cheaper than the Cayman, in the mid-teens to low $20,000 range.
• 958 Cayenne GTS: A naturally aspirated V8 SUV, originally priced around $90,000, now available for $20,000-$25,000.
• 957 Cayenne (manual): Ultra-rare manual transmission SUV, values are rising due to its rarity.
• Macan S: A reliable turbocharged V6 SUV offering strong demand and value, in the mid-$20,000 range.
• 970.2 Panamera GTS: A naturally aspirated V8 sedan with a unique luxury and performance combination, priced in the mid-to-high $20,000 range.
• Taycan: Electric Porsche models are experiencing significant depreciation (around 50% in 4 years) and are not recommended as investments.
• Several "blue-chip" investments: The video also mentions several higher-priced Porsche models (997 GT3, 981 Cayman GT4, 991.2 GT3 Touring, 991.2 Carrera T, 996 Turbo) that are already high-value and appreciating.
