Porsche: Porsche ◆Porsche 911 (992.2 type)

Porsche Italy CEO speaks about Porsche 911 (992.2)

Posted on February 15, 2024 Updated on:May 28, 2024

Suggests when 992.2 will come to Italy

The 992.2 is the next version (or should I say that?) of the Porsche 911.

It has been said for quite some time that it will be released soon, but it hasn't been announced yet.

Even now, there are rumors that it will be released soon, and there are also rumors that the announcement of 992.2 was finally scheduled for fall 2024, but that was delayed and now the announcement date is back to undetermined.

It is said that if things go wrong, 992.2 will be announced in 2025, so I wonder what will happen.

Various dates have been rumored until now, but the sources of both rumors are magazine articles that don't seem to be very reliable (sorry...), and stories from Porsche dealers in various countries including Japan. Of course, some of that information may have been correct, but I still felt like I still didn't understand it.

Then I came across this video.

This is a video from the annual conference held at PEC Franciacorta in Italy, and the CEO of Porsche Italia is interviewed.

Among them, the CEO (around 2:45):

Five models were announced in 2023.
Four models will be announced in 2024.
They are the announced new Panamera, EV Macan, new Taycan, and...

Continuing this, he said, ``and then towards the end of the year, the new generations of 911 will also arrive.''

I don't understand Italian, so this is an automatic translation of the video from Italian to English, but in other words, ``The new generation 911 will arrive towards the end of the year.''

I don't know if this "arrive" refers to the time when 992.2 will be delivered to Porsche Italia after it has already been announced, or if it refers to the time when 992.2 will be announced in the first place.

If we are referring to the delivery time, it seems that the announcement will be made during Q2 or in the summer, but everything is unknown.

I can't understand Italian, so I don't understand the nuances of the words actually used.

Of course, just because he's the CEO of Porsche Italia doesn't necessarily mean he already has information about what Germany's Porsche AG is planning.

However, if you think about it among the same Porsche people, is it a little more reliable that the Italian CEO spoke at an official venue than other rumors? and.

However, even if this information is correct at this point, I'm sure the announcement date has changed many times before, and I think there is a possibility that it will be postponed again in the future.

I think it's good to announce it anytime (sounds like a throwaway (lol)), but the time when Porsche announces it is when the 992.2 is born, and I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of specifications the 992.2 will come out with! I am waiting patiently.

Well now, I wonder what will happen~^^

Thank you for the information. Late-stage material has been making a lot of noise recently. Personally, I thought it would be delivered to Europe within the year. I'm biased, but since it's Italy, I shouldn't have said so, but I guess they over-served. For me, the first half of the production period was completed in time, and production began in April. I'd be sad if the latter model became NA, but it seems like the price will go up significantly whether it's NA or Turbo, so I guess I can't help it.

  Mr. Raphael
  Hello. I'm also biased (lol), but even though this information had been conveyed to the executives of each country as ``information that must not be disclosed yet,'' it seemed like they didn't care much about it and talked about it normally (lol) ).
  
  Is production confirmed for April? Congratulations ^^
  
  We don't know what will happen in the future, so if you have a Porsche you want, I think it's best to buy it while you can.

Hello!

As expected, the Italian and Latin blood makes the palate smooth. Yesterday, a sales representative from an Italian manufacturer showed off a 992.2 HV next to a red car.
What surprised me was that if I refused the Taycan because of the GT3 RS rather than the 992.2, the condition was that I had to buy the Panamera and 3 other cars.
The situation where EVs are forced by the EU and manufacturers are forced to pass the burden on users through dealers is a limit. It's the same with Ferrari, where you can't order a new car unless you buy a used car, but Porsche, or some Porsche dealers, are at a level that is unacceptable as a company. Porsche Japan is also out of control and the situation where it ends up allowing dealers to violate compliance becomes a dark history that reduces brand value. At least not for Ferrari, which is proud of itself as a manufacturer.

If things continue like this, you won't be able to buy a normal 911 model. It may be a beautiful thing, but the 911 has a lot of attachment to it, and we want it to be loved by everyone.

  Good evening ^^ If I refuse Taycan, will I get Panamera and 3 others? ! Isn't that too unlikely? ? ?
  
  Unless it's a limited edition car, one of only a few in the world, and you have a lifelong passion for it, or you're a millionaire with too much money, you won't have to do anything else to buy that car. I don't think I would ever accept that (or even a millionaire might not accept it).
  
  I love Porsches, but if there was a Porsche that came to me without having to do anything like that, I would consider it a connection and an encounter. Therefore, there were many days when I cried because I couldn't buy something even though I wanted it (lol). However, there were days when I cried because I couldn't buy one, and now I think that the Porsche I was able to find is the best Porsche for me.
  
  I would like to see the car I want go to the person who wants it as much as possible, without the sales side doing tie-in sales and the buying side not reselling for profit!
  
  Also, I guess I can't just say beautiful things...(tears).

    Hello!
    
    What I am reminded of in this case is that Porsche is primarily a dealer, while Ferrari is primarily a manufacturer. The cross-selling of Porsche dealers is not new; it has been with the original 911 for some time. There have been many times when I have been directly asked to order the next car on the day of delivery. Dealers are ranked into bronze, silver, and gold based on sales volume, etc. Gold dealers have more slots, but since there are many users, silver may be your target. By the way, mechanics have a similar ranking system. (This does not mean that gold dealers have excellent sales)
    
    To be honest, there is almost no point in buying Porsche other than 911 and 718.
    The other four models are more sporty than other manufacturers, but SUVs are SUVs and sedans are sedans. Furthermore, in terms of quality, they are inferior to BMW and Mercedes. It's a hit or miss, and I was also a huge disappointment with the earlier model Cayenne. After all, it's VW quality. From a manufacturer's perspective, the worst thing is that the quality is not uniform. Even among people who maintain Porsche for a living, there are many people who use Lexus SUVs due to quality reasons.
    Even if you put up with the quality, the 911 and 718 have value, but it's hard to find value.
    In the past, the customer service and maintenance services at Cornes were fairly rated, but now I feel that they are better than Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, and Lexus, and on par with Toyota's flagship store.
    
    It seems that 992.2 will be announced as soon as there is a prospect of backorders for 992.1.

      Hello ~.
      
      Did they ask you to order your next car on the delivery date? ! Even the sales people are very aggressive (lol). I have also been asked on the day of delivery, ``Shall I buy it?'' Of course I was joking (lol).
      
      By the way, regarding the ranking of Porsche mechanics, the sales person who has been in charge of me since the time of the black Carrera is a former Porsche mechanic (gold). That's why I rely on you so much ^^
      
      Will 992.2 be available as soon as 992.1 is back ordered? ! ...When will it be finished? ?

        CARO says on YouTube that reservations for 992.2 have started!

        Good evening, thank you for the information ^^
        
        The other day, someone else introduced me to the same video on Facebook. I would like to reproduce my comment there almost verbatim:
        
        Regarding reservations for the 992.2, I have visited several PC series before, and there are customers who have made deposits to line up before the model was announced, so even though they have received reservations, it is difficult to actually receive the model. The current situation seems to be that it has not been decided whether that person will receive a priority slot when the announcement is made (will they be placed earlier in the queue)?
        
        Of course, when I asked about it, I wasn't talking about 992.2, but only about an unreleased model, so there may be some PCs who accept 992.2 (in the sense that they can take turns properly). ? ?
        
        If you place an order before the official start of accepting orders, you need to be sure that you are ``just accepting orders'' or ``really it is related to the order of order,'' otherwise things will be different later! You may need to be careful as this may happen.
        
        There are some people who have already made reservations for the 992.2 GT3, and I asked them about that, but at the moment they just say they are "accepting" reservations, and it seems that the allocation will actually be decided after the official announcement.

In my case, should I buy a GT3RS or something like a Taycan? ? There were no conditions. I have only bought the 911 series so far...

  Hello!
  
  It's great that there were no conditions for purchasing the GT3 RS! ! That's exactly how it should be.
  
  I have some resistance to cross-selling style sales, but I don't have any problem with dealers and manufacturers choosing their customers, and I think it's normal, because it's a business (favorable customers are given priority). or something like that).

    Excuse me for the side-splitting.
    
    Of the 6 dealers I know, only 2 are tying, and the rest are priority customers or lottery. Those who got it through tying must be aware of this, and there are also people who sell RS at 6 or 7 for speculative purposes, so it's difficult.
    
    Now, regarding the production of 992.2, I think it will depend on securing later model parts rather than back orders. In the manufacturing industry, not having new parts is an annual event. There are always changes from the prototype car currently running, and there are some people in charge who report that there are no problems even though they haven't secured it yet.
    I am accepting orders, but I am also accepting orders at the beginning of the new year, but no deposit is required.
    
    The other day, I sat in the passenger seat of an RS, and the racyness was nowhere near as good as the 458S, and I reconfirmed that it would be impossible for me. The 458S becomes a noisy car if you don't turn it all the way up, but I think the evolution over the last 10 years is amazing. The price difference between 458 and 458S was 500 at the time, so it might be something like this. Now, the resale is more than double, so it's no surprise that RS is overheating.
    Even so, the RS's gigantic wings look like a toy version of the 458S's rear end ducktail.
    (That's why everyone is at the mercy of EVs...EVs have descended to earth.)

      Good evening ^^ 992.2 may depend on securing late model parts...I see.
      
      Lately, I've been hearing a lot that there won't be any announcements until next year, but I'm still not sure if this is true...
      
      So you experienced the passenger seat of the RS! ! I don't have one yet, but it looks amazing! ! Just by hearing the impressions of Mr. Kanreki, who loves carts, I was convinced (I originally thought it was impossible, but again) that it was impossible after all (lol).
