A Porsche's value is what buyers actually pay today. ForCar reads real US asking prices across 12 Porsche models ($1,144–$187,918) and shows the trade-in, private-party and dealer range by model, year and mileage — free, no signup.
Across 7 Porsche models we price, a five-year-old car still asks about 52% of what the newest one does — that puts Porsche #26 of 44 brands, below the 55% market median. The Cayman holds value best at 89%, the Boxster worst at 37%. Calculated from 921 listings.

How well does a Porsche hold its value?
Resale value is everything when you sell or trade. Because ForCar prices from the live market, you see how a Porsche actually depreciates — here's the median value by age across the brand's models, from real listings (compare with the typical depreciation curve by age):
A Porsche worth about $75,282 at one year old is typically down to ~$61,961 by five years — roughly 18% lost in the first five years. Open any model above for its own year-by-year curve.
Which Porsche holds its value best?
Not every Porsche depreciates the same. This is 5-year value retention by model — how much of its price each keeps after five years on the used market (higher = holds value better):
Retention = the median resale price of a ~5-year-old model versus a current one, from real listings. Luxury and high-powered trims usually drop hardest; practical, in-demand models hold on.
Does Porsche hold value better than other brands?
Every brand we price, ranked by how much of its newest price a five-year-old car still asks — the median across that brand's models. Porsche sits at #26 of 44, against a market median of 55%.
Which Porsche body style holds value best?
The same badge depreciates differently depending on what it's bolted to. Here's every Porsche body style we price, ranked by how much of its newest price a five-year-old car still asks.
Body styles with only one or two priced models move a lot year to year — read them as a direction, not a verdict.
What mileage costs a Porsche
Crossing 100,000 miles takes about 75% off a Porsche — steeper than the 65% the average used car loses. Median asking price in each odometer band, from our listings:
How far Porsche prices spread
Two cars of the same year and badge rarely cost the same — trim, condition and seller move the number. Across Porsche, the gap between cheap and dear runs about 64% of the median. The band shows the low-to-high range, the line is the median.
Trade-in, private-party & dealer price
Every Porsche has three prices. Our low–median–high range maps to what a dealer pays you, what you'd get selling it yourself, and what a lot charges — see current used-market prices across all models too:
On Porsche listings the dealer retail price (204% of median) runs about 2.8× the trade-in offer (74%) — the gap you're negotiating.
Trading in or selling your Porsche?
Know all three numbers before you walk in. Trade-in is fastest but lowest; selling private-party nets the most; a dealer's asking price shows the ceiling. ForCar's range gives you the leverage to negotiate from real data, not a salesperson's screen.
