See I’m not sure I agree - I think Porsche is just more committed to performance oriented vehicles. They know that SUV and luxury sedans make then boocoo money...but they use the profits to make badass Caymans, Boxsters, and 911s. And their GT level cars are in classes of their own up to super car performance and cost levels. BMW
could do that, but they won’t.
Quantity over quality these days. That’s just how it is.
