The 2024 Porsche 911 S/T starts at $291,650 and is the lightest member of the 911 family. It is considered a potential future collectible. However, not many people can afford a car that costs almost $375,000 with all options. And even for those who can afford it, they won’t have full ownership of the car for the first 12 months. Let’s explain what this means.

Frank Moser, the head of the 911 and 718 model lines at Porsche, explained the situation. He said, “When we announced the 911 S/T to mark 60 years of the 911, we received an overwhelming amount of interest in the car. In fact, the demand far exceeded the number of cars allocated to the US.” Moser further added, “Our goal is to ensure that true enthusiasts have the opportunity to own and enjoy these cars for years to come. To achieve this, we have decided that those who are allocated a 911 S/T in the US will be required to adhere to a minimum retention period of one year. This means that initially, the cars in the US will be leased for this period before the ownership is transferred.”
