Porsche 911 keeps 60% of its recent market value after 5 years — #214 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Porsche 911 retains 60% of its recent market value after five years, ranking #214 of 530 cars we track. That trails the 63% five-year average for Sports in its class by 3 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Porsche 911 sheds about 16% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $204,497 it falls to around $122,902 by year five — a five-year loss near $81,595, about $44.71 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Porsche 911 bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
