Hey, as the title says I need some advice by you on how to convince my father for a Porsche. He is in his early sixties and is a lawyer so money isn’t that huge of a deal for him.
In my eyes my father wastes too much money for the wrong cars. This year he bought a VW E-Up which isn’t a bad car itself but far too overpriced (30k euros). Last year he bought an old Volvo 850 and switched the engine for an R-Engine instead of waiting for a good deal for a real Volvo 850R. In less than 2 years he spend like 25k-30k on an unrealiable car that won’t rise in value.
He also had two CLA 45 AMG (3 years each) as leasing for 6 years (500€ per month) and the CLA AMG is just a boring overpriced car.
I always tried to convince him for a real sports car. In 2017 I told him to get a SLS which costs back than like 150k and now about 250k and for a much longer period I told him to get a 911.
The money he spend on the Volvo and AMG could have gotten him a nice used 911 but my dad won’t listen to me.
So what can I do to convince him? I thought about a test drive for him because in my eyes you have to drive a Porsche to really understand why they are such great cars.
As the others are saying, it doesn’t sound like it’s his “design language” considering he drives Mercedes and Volvo. I actually just recently convinced my dad to get a Porsche when his current lease expires this spring, but he has been driving BMW exclusively for 10 years and I feel like there’s a natural connection/transition between BMW and Porsche
