When you are looking for a car, you have several options to consider. You can buy a car that’s already been built and is sitting on the lot, or you can order a vehicle that will be made to your specifications. Pre-ordering has its advantages, and we’ll explore some of them in this article!
How to Shop When the Dealer Doesn’t Stock the Car You Want?
You might have noticed that your local dealership looks empty these days. This is because, in early 2021, the automotive industry was struck by a global microchip shortage. Since then, supply disruptions have continued, and manufacturers can’t keep up with demand. This has led to a new car inventory shortage at many dealerships.
So how do you still find the perfect luxury vehicle for you when the car lots are empty? The short answer: order a custom car.

How To Order A Car That Is Not In Stock?
Your local Porsche dealership might not have the car of your dreams on display, but that doesn’t mean they’re not happy to obtain it for you. Previously, suppose you visited us at the Porsche Fort Myers dealership and didn’t find the car you were looking for. In that case, we could phone the Porsche dealership in Naples, Florida, and have a similar vehicle available for viewing the next day.
Today, believe it or not, things are even more straightforward. You can view every possible option available without even leaving your home.
Most manufacturers’ websites now feature an easy-to-use visual guide that allows you to build a Porsche with your desired specifications. The entire Porsche inventory for that year is available to browse. An image of your new custom Porsche updates as you decide what color paint you prefer, which trim you like, how you would like the interior to be upholstered, and so forth.
You can even save images of your custom vehicle at every step, so you can compare how your Porsche Taycan would look with a Dolomite Gray versus Ice Gray metallic paint job.
Once you’ve decided what you need in your new luxury vehicle, the manufacturer will send the order to your local dealer, who will contact you to discuss the sale and arrange delivery.
Porsche Fort Myers covers the Fort Myers, Estero, and Cape Coral regions, so if you place an order or request a quote on the Porsche website, you’ll soon receive a call from our experienced team, ready to answer any questions you might have.
Why It’s Important To Pre-Order Your Car?
When buying one of the most luxurious, powerful, exclusive cars on the market, there’s no excuse for putting up with anything less than perfection.
Pre-ordering your vehicle also gives you time to reflect on the best choices for you. The urge to buy affects everyone, but when you custom order online, you can take all the time you need to decide whether you need the extra lighting package or not.
Some buyers might find themselves wondering how to negotiate car prices. While some additional fees may apply, designing your Porsche online tells you roughly how much you can expect to pay. From there, you can discuss with the dealer whether any incentives apply. Of course, if one dealer won’t make a reasonable offer, there’s no reason not to try another nearby dealer.
With manufacturers confident in their buyers, dealerships not having to pay maintenance and insurance for cars on their lot, and customers finally getting the perfectly tailored vehicle, it’s no surprise that pre-ordering is becoming so popular. If you’d like to hear more about the pre-ordering process, please don’t hesitate to contact us at Porsche Fort Myers.
