Old man might be getting a 911 turbo S ( if i can convince him properly)

I understand the GT3/ GTRS/ GT4 have markups, but my understanding is while the 911 turbo is expensive, it's not hard getting an allocation/ order slot.

That being said, how much discount do you think they will give on a 190,000 car?

what % off is invoice? BMW/ Audi roughly 8 %... anyone have any ideas on Porsche?

I can't say exactly (limited experience), however with a car in that price range you really need to expand your search across the country and see who will play ball. Set out your must-have specs and send out emails to 15-30 dealers across the country stating you are searching for a car and intent upon doing business with the outfit that cuts you the best deal and/or service.

Using that method I have been able to consistently get 8-10% off for myself and friends (BMW 228i, Audi S3, Ford Fiesta ST, Fiat Abarth this past year). Yes you need to withstand salesman and dealer spam, but usually a gem or two will appear and you get a great deal with minimal footwork.

I have been able to get a discount on customer order cars from the factory, but usually half of the percentages listed above.

Unless he wants to eat $60k in the first two years I would suggest buying a low mileage CPO car for $50k less.

+1 and if he's got this kind of $ to spend on a car he's got friends who have similar ability - would be willing to bet one of them has a good relationship with a Porsche dealer you could leverage.

true, i'm going to start doing this. just looking to get a ballpark. seems like they will play ball on the cars that are non limited production

If it's sitting on the lot 20% isn't uncommon. At I minimum I would shoot for 12%

20% is possible but it would not be a new model year, likely 2 years old (or not well optioned, but an anomaly of a car) like the guy who just got a 2015 GTS for 20% off except that we are now already on 2017 mode years.
On a new 2017 991.2 turbo S, a good discount would be 6%. The used cars are still holding a lot of value.
Porsche discounts are not plentiful in general.
