That, and the markup on the cars are insane.

Agreed, how many times we hear ppl say they wanted a sportscar but wanted to carry some small ppl, hence they got the 911? That's not a good reason *for me* in getting a performance car. It's like that other silly reason, 'oh I gotta fit a golfclub bag so I got a Vette!' What?! LMAO. We need to be focused on what we want in a sportscar, not for silly peripherals like cupholders, leather dashboards, wireless carplay, etc smh. Practicality for out of the window for me in this area, but conversely that's why 'performance' suvs are such hot sellers since ppl only have so much disposable income and they unrealistically want all-in-ones.
I would daresay that dude in that video I posted in another thread is more technically-inclined never mind being in that specific industry vs most of us, but I'm not really here to debate if the Cayman/Boxster is 80% or 79.9999% of the 911 lol.
I just HATE how Porsche is intentionally keeping down the superior platform just for tradition's sake. Mind you, other manufacturers are somehow idiots cuz they cannot defeat a RR platform, so kudos for Porsche for keeping the 911 relevant, but, just imagine if they actually put in all their superior engineering prowess into the MR platform?
