Let's be somewhat fair here.. Most folks already know what a Porsche is and know they can go to a dealer to get a close up and buy one. Also consider that at many of the "smaller shows" it is the local dealer group, and not the factory, that participate and Porsche has been able to reign in the non factory owned dealerships to do what "they" say and not the other way around.

Also realize that Detroit is no longer the automotive center of the world. So.. neither is their show. The big "$$" that buys porsches is on the coasts.. not the midwest. Sure, for the "locals" it is another slight. But beyond those in Detroit or who would go to Detroit, in January, in doesn't seem like a big deal to me.
