A 911 GT3 RS or a 718 Cayman GT4 RS goes onto a monthly payment here, with the price split into a deposit of around 15 per cent, a term and a deferred final payment. Porsche lease purchase has you and the lender agree that balloon at the outset, which is what pulls the monthly cost down, and title is yours once it is paid.
We arrange Porsche lease purchase across 16 current and recent Porsche AG models, from the Macan at around £51,000 to the 918 Spyder at £1,500,000. Every figure on this page is computed from those real list prices by the same finance calculator you can run yourself, and we are an independent credit broker arranging the financing rather than a lender, so the rate and the term come back from our panel of specialist lenders rather than from us.
What a Porsche lease purchase costs a month
The figures below are computed from each car's real list price using the same amortisation the finance calculator on this page runs, at 8.9% indicative nominal over 48 months. They are illustrations rather than quotations, because the deposit, the term and the rate all move with the specific Porsche, its provenance and your credit position. Financing at this level is underwritten car by car, so the true cost of Porsche lease purchase is set once a lender has seen both.
The table prices the Porsche 918 Spyder, then the Carrera GT and 911 GT3 RS. Change the car and the monthly payment moves with the list price, the deposit and the term rather than with anything we decide.
| Vehicle | Price | Deposit | Term | Balloon | Rate | Monthly |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Porsche 918 Spyder | £1,500,000 | £225,000 (15%) | 48 months | £975,000 (65%) | 8.9% | £14,683 |
| Porsche Carrera GT | £1,200,000 | £360,000 (30%) | 36 months | £840,000 (70%) | 8.9% | £6,230 |
| Porsche 911 GT3 RS | £185,000 | £37,000 (20%) | 48 months | £129,500 (70%) | 8.9% | £1,420 |
Indicative only and not a quotation. Figures are calculated on a balance-with-balloon amortisation at the nominal annual rate shown, and assume no fees. Final terms depend on the commercial lender's underwriting, your circumstances, and the vehicle's specification and provenance.

Which Stuttgart models we place on Porsche lease purchase
We arrange Porsche lease purchase across the Porsche AG range rather than on a shortlist of easy cars, but the structure does not fit every model equally. Our specialist lenders take new, pre-owned and classic Porsche cars alike, and the judgement in the table below comes from how each car has actually behaved at the end of a term rather than from what is easiest to place.
The Porsche 911 GT3 RS, the 918 Spyder, Carrera GT and 718 Cayman GT4 RS suit Porsche lease purchase. The 911 Carrera, 911 Carrera S, 911 GT3, 911 Turbo, 911 Turbo S, Taycan, Taycan Turbo S, Cayenne, Cayenne Turbo GT, Macan, Macan Electric Turbo and Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid do not, for the residual reason set out further down. Prices below are list, and a pre-owned 911 GT3 RS is arranged on the same panel as a new one.

| 911 Carrera | £102,000 | No | You carry the residual on a falling asset |
| 911 Carrera S | £118,000 | No | You carry the residual on a falling asset |
| 911 GT3 | £145,000 | No | You carry the residual on a falling asset |
| 911 GT3 RS | £185,000 | Yes | You keep the appreciation above the balloon |
| 911 Turbo | £142,000 | No | You carry the residual on a falling asset |

Porsche lease purchase deposit, term and balloon
Porsche lease purchase is built from three numbers. A deposit, typically 15% on a Porsche AG car and payable from cash, a part exchange or equity in something you already own. A term, usually 48 months. And a agreed final balloon deferred to the end, which is what pulls the monthly payment down to the figures above.
You have three ways to deal with the balloon payment: settle it and take the Porsche outright, refinance it over a further term, or sell the car and clear it from the proceeds. Which of those is right is worth deciding before the agreement is written rather than in its final month. Early settlement part way through is allowed, with interest you have not yet run rebated. New, pre-owned and classic cars are all eligible, and Porsche sits inside the wider sports car finance, classic car finance and prestige car finance market we work across.
Interest rates on a lease purchase agreement move with the term, the deposit and your credit profile, and financing a classic Porsche runs on the same agreement as a current one.

Why Porsche finance at this level goes through a panel
Porsche finance at this level is not a retail product and is not priced from a rate card. We are an independent credit broker rather than a lender, so Porsche lease purchase goes to the lenders on our panel that genuinely write against Porsche AG cars, and what comes back reflects the individual car, its provenance and its specification rather than a headline rate.
Every Porsche finance figure on this page is computed from a real list price in our catalogue, from the Macan up to the 918 Spyder, on the same amortisation the calculator runs. We publish no headline rate because every agreement above £25,000 is underwritten individually, and financing a Porsche AG car turns on the asset at least as much as on the borrower.
Whether you arrive calling it Porsche car finance, sports car finance, classic car finance and prestige car finance, or simply a monthly payment on a Macan, the four structures and the panel behind them are the same. We arrange bespoke finance across the UK, a classic car goes to the same underwriters as a new one, and the monthly payments quoted here are computed rather than advertised.
What we do on a Porsche that a dealer finance desk does not
- Place Porsche lease purchase across a panel rather than with one lender, so a decline on a Porsche starts the conversation rather than ending it
- Price new, pre-owned and classic Porsche cars on the same panel, including a Macan bought privately or a 918 Spyder bought at auction
- Structure around Porsche AG residual behaviour rather than against it, which is the whole of the argument on this marque
- Say when one of the other three structures suits your Porsche better, even where it is the one we place less often
How Porsche AG residuals decide the balloon you agree
The Macan, the Cayenne and the Taycan depreciate the way prestige cars are supposed to. They sell in volume, they have transparent used pricing, and a lender can set a guaranteed future value on one without much argument. The Taycan is the softest of the three, as early electric performance cars generally have been, which is precisely the circumstance in which a guaranteed figure is worth having.
The 911 sits in the middle and misbehaves in a useful direction. A Carrera follows a conventional curve. A GT3, a GT3 RS or a 718 Cayman GT4 RS does not, because supply is set by allocation rather than demand and the cars have repeatedly traded above list while still new. Lenders have learned this and will set stronger figures on the GT cars than the volume equivalents would suggest.
The Carrera GT and the 918 Spyder are in a third category entirely. Both bottomed out years ago and have appreciated since, and both are now refinance assets rather than purchase assets for most of the people who ask us about them.
Porsche is the one marque here where every one of the four structures genuinely works, because Stuttgart produces both the most forecastable and the most appreciating cars in this catalogue.
| Direction | Cars | What it means for a lender |
|---|---|---|
| Holding or rising | Carrera GT, 918 Spyder, 911 GT3 RS, 718 Cayman GT4 RS | A guaranteed future value is either declined outright or set below what the car is really worth, so the lender's protection is worth little here |
| Falling | Taycan, Macan, Cayenne, Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid | Forecastable, so a guaranteed figure can be set and priced |
Market commentary rather than a valuation. Residual value is the largest single variable in a £25,000-plus vehicle agreement and no credit broker can guarantee it. Lender posture on Porsche: Readily available across Macan, Cayenne, Taycan and Carrera, stronger than expected on GT cars, declined on Carrera GT and 918 Spyder.
Porsche lease purchase against the other three structures
The four finance options are not interchangeable on a Porsche, and the reason is the one running through this whole page: who carries the residual. Personal Contract Purchase hands it to the lender through a guaranteed minimum future value. Lease Purchase leaves it with you behind a balloon payment you agree. Hire Purchase removes the question by amortising the full cost and ends in outright ownership. Equity Release is not a purchase structure at all, but a refinance against a Porsche you already hold.
- Core structure
Porsche Personal Contract Purchase
Porsche is the marque PCP was designed around, and it is the one place on this site where the product works as advertised across almost the whole range.
- Core structure
Porsche Hire Purchase
Hire purchase is a core structure at Porsche and the one to reach for whenever the car will be driven properly or kept, because nothing about your mileage, your specification or your intentions is anybody's business at the end of the term.
You are here
Porsche Lease Purchase
Works, with a caveatLease purchase beats PCP on the allocation-controlled GT cars and loses to it everywhere else in the Porsche range, which makes this the clearest split-decision marque on the site.
- Core structure
Porsche Equity Release
Porsche is a genuinely strong equity release marque, because Stuttgart's appreciating cars, the Carrera GT and the 918 Spyder above all, are usually owned outright and worth multiples of what they cost.
Ratings are our own view of how each structure behaves on Porsche, based on the residual evidence above rather than on which product is easiest to place.
Where lease purchase stops working on a Stuttgart car
A 911 GT3 RS or a 718 Cayman GT4 RS is supplied by allocation rather than by demand, and both have repeatedly traded above list while still new. On a car in that position, a lender's guaranteed figure, however strong, may sit below what the car is actually worth at the end of the term, and the surplus is written into the lender's option rather than into your hands. Lease purchase lets you agree a higher balloon, hold the car on a lower monthly cost, and keep whatever the market gives you.
Move to the Macan, the Cayenne or the Taycan and the argument inverts completely. These are the most forecastable cars in the catalogue and they depreciate the way prestige cars are supposed to, the Taycan fastest of the three. Agreeing your own balloon on a Taycan means volunteering to carry the steepest and least settled residual Stuttgart currently sells, when a lender is willing to fix it for you at the outset. The Carrera and the 911 Turbo sit between the two and genuinely go either way.
The GT car argument depends on allocation holding. If Porsche widens supply of a future GT3 RS, or the market cools, the balloon you agreed stops looking clever and becomes a payment you have to find. And on the volume cars there is no argument at all: a customer-held balloon on a Macan or a Cayenne is risk you are taking on for no reward.
If that is your position, Personal Contract Purchase is worth putting alongside this one before you decide.
Worth putting alongside this one
Porsche Personal Contract Purchase
On the Macan, the Cayenne and the Taycan a lender will guarantee the residual, and the Taycan in particular is the clearest case on this site for letting it, so keep lease purchase for the GT cars.

Porsche lease purchase FAQs
Porsche Taycan Turbo S at £160,000 works out at roughly £1,984 a month on Lease Purchase, with £24,000 down at 15% and a 48 month term at 8.9% indicative nominal, leaving £80,000 deferred to the end. Dearer cars in the range scale up from there. Every figure is computed rather than quoted, so run your own before relying on it.
Because the GT4 RS is allocation-controlled and has traded above list while new, which is the exact case where a guaranteed figure works against you. A lender setting one is protecting you from a fall that has not happened. Lease purchase lets you and the lender agree a higher balloon, which lowers the monthly cost, and leaves any surplus at the end of the term with you rather than inside somebody else's option.
Yes, and lease purchase is one of the two structures that reach them. Both bottomed out years ago and have appreciated since, so no guaranteed value applies and the underwriting runs off an individual appraisal and provenance file rather than a valuation book. In practice most Carrera GT and 918 Spyder enquiries we see are from existing owners, where equity release rather than a purchase structure is the right conversation.
Around 15 per cent is the usual starting point on this marque, lower than the Italian marques because lenders are comfortable with Porsche as security. On a lease purchase the deposit does more than reduce the balance: it also reduces how much of the price is riding on the balloon, which is the part of the agreement you are carrying rather than the lender. A larger deposit usually improves the rate as well.
It is a closer call than the standard Cayenne but the answer is still usually no. The Turbo GT is a limited-run derivative with a firmer market than the volume Cayenne, which narrows the gap, but it is not allocation-controlled in the way a GT3 RS is and lenders will forecast it. If a guaranteed figure is available and close to your balloon, take the guarantee.
