Building grandpa ride cars is fine, they should just call them something else other than Carreras. This is like Tony Stewart thanking his crew for making his Camry awesome to drive in a NASCAR race. But in reverse. Porsche is using a car's racing heritage to sell something cushy and automated -- when those two things weren't what made it cool in the first place. Keep the Carrera and Boxsters as they are and simply come up with a new name for a coupe that a doctor, Chinese billionaire, rapper or Hollywood actor would want to drive.
They're trying to have it both ways and in the end they will be making Porsche nothing different from Audi, Merc, Jaguar and BMW. Cars with more and more power and more and more driver assists to keep said doctors and billionaires out of the Armco.

Porsche has cheapened their mark, first by manufacturing trucks, then by allowing VW to get at the master panel and finally by moving away from the sports car legend. Now it's Ferrari and Lambo that make only sports cars and frankly don't seem to care if you're too tall or fat to fit. I hope we don't see the day when Ferrari makes a 50k POS and adorns it with the prancing horse the old man lifted from a fighter pilot insignia.
