Why You’ll Never Really Make Money on a Porsche (And Why That’s Okay)

Will and Derek just got back from rallying through the Blue Ridge and Smoky Mountains before spending the weekend at Luftgekühlt 11 in Durham, North Carolina. From secret back-road routes around Blowing Rock to running laps at Bristol Motor Speedway, it was two days of incredible driving followed by the most artfully curated Porsche event on the planet — courtesy of Patrick Long and Jeff Zwart at the historic Lucky Strike factory. In the intro, Derek gives a full recap of the week: Then we roll into one of our favorite classic episodes — “ The Big Lie: Making Money on Every Porsche. ” We dig deep into: The myth of always profiting on Porsche ownership The hidden costs (taxes, insurance, PPIs, must-dos vs. nice-to-dos) Why ceramic and PPF are often sunk costs The ethics of selling and what it means to be a good steward Why breaking even might actually mean you’re winning So grab your coffee, settle in, and enjoy a mix of mountain-road storytelling and Porsche ownership truth-talk.
