porschecenter11A friend of mine is intending to buy a new Porsche 911 Carrera 2013 and was checking the prices of all GCC countries to decide whether he should buy it from Kuwait or ship it from another GCC country in case the warranty will be valid (new car). Interestingly, Porsche website provide the prices of all their car models for all GCC countries so we decided to make a table to compare the prices for Porsche Boxter S, Cayman S, 911 Carrera, 911 Carrera S, 911 Carrera 4S, Panamera and Cayenne. I remember I’ve done this before but my friend wanted to re-check the prices to see if things have changed.

carprices11What we did is that we used the latest conversion rates to convert the other GCC currencies and we found that Kuwait has the highest prices for all models, the average prices difference was around KD800. This makes me ask the questions; Why Kuwait has the highest prices compared to all other GCC countries? Does Kuwait Porsche Center provide better service? Longer warranty? Cheaper maintenance? And most importantly are the prices of other cars makers(Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, Toyota, BMW, Ferrari, Nissan, Honda, Lexus, Ford…etc.) are also more expensive in Kuwait?

The conversion rates below were obtained from NBK online and Porsche prices were obtained from official Porsche website, also bear in mind that I’m not sure if these prices were updated from Porsche. Check below links.

    That’s Kuwait the highest in everything, I’m not surprised.

    I have two Porsches that I purchased in Kuwait and let me just say – they’re ripping you off. They claim that their high prices are due to buying the cars from Germany in Euros and that the conversion comes off like this, but Behbehani Motors has a reputation for overcharging. Their car prices increase several times a year, too; a Panamera V6 was 29800 last year but went up to 30100 this year. Although I love the service team because I know them personally, they don’t offer cheaper parts, longer maintenance or anything of the sort; every time I needed a replacement car, they’d never have one and when I put my name on the waiting list, I’d have to wait two months. If anything, I’ve received much better service over at Infiniti [probably the best service I’ve had at a dealer in Kuwait], which is a shame when you’re comparing that brand to Porsche. By the looks of it, any car I get in the future is coming out of Dubai or Muscat.

  4. Not sure why this is the case. The prices are not too far apart, but again that Kuwait is always the most expensive is a concern

    Maybe because Kuwaitis buy alot like its a camry

    i received my 2013 911 4 days ago. regarding the prices, many options that come standard in kuwait are optional in uae or oman. So far am satisfied with their delivery of the car and service. The reason i bought it from here was to avoid all the hussle and effort and customs registration. bil 3rabi ‘bray7 rase’. plus the resale value is higher if its ward el kuwait

  7. of course just like your site but you have to check this punctuation on a lot of you. Many of options are filled having punctuation challenges i think it is very troublesome to tell reality on the flip side I am going to absolutely revisit once again.
