USA Today Porsche article - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

USA Today had an article on the Cayman in the weekend edition. Interesting fact...Porsche's sells as many units (all models) as Ford sells F150's in two weeks. We all buy Porsche's for different reasons, but handling, performance and EXCLUSIVITY are my top 3. Don't mean to revisit this again, but thought it was interesting. By the way, they LOVED the Cayman.

I imagine, there were "officially" a lot of Cayman sales in January because January 15 (or there about) was the first official day the car went on sale. So, for many months people were "buying" them, but the actual transaction date-of-sale was in January. I don't think Porsche will see the same sales numbers in future months.

Actually, what I meant was, Porsche sells as many units in 1 YEAR as Ford sells F150s in two weeks. I'm glad I don't rely on the written word for my job.
