[1982911SCTarga]

I've always been curious what the Porsche new-car buying experience would have been like for say, my '82, or for other 911s purchased new (from a VW-Porsche-Audi dealer?) in the 1970s or early '80s.

It's easy enough to see what our cars' MSRPs were. However, was the MSRP the actual price paid? Or was it lower or higher? Did you order and wait, or buy what the dealer offered? Were certain colors or option-packages discounted? Did sales reps try to move you up from a T to an E or S? Was there a "best" time of year/model year to get a good deal? Was there much "selling" on the part of the dealership sales reps?

Let's set the wayback machine and hear some tales from guys who bought new 911s back in the day ...
