Well Porsche made three times trading their options than they did selling cars. BILLIONS!!! "Porshce the hedge fund that sells cars on the side"
That's so nuts I can't even believe so much good fortune could come to a bunch of guys that think they are doing you a favor selling you one of their cars.
Not only are they still the most profitable car company in the world, they have also outperformed 99% of the hedge funds. Double whammy of dinero for one year.
New historic model is coming out soon which will no doubt sell well as the brand is as hot as it has ever been. The Boxster had its day in the sun and now its back to the traditional fringe sports car sector of two seaters: They aren't the most popular cars in any company line up. Honda a ginormous car company in comparison to Porsche has actually sold fewer S2000's (an EXCELLENT car by any sports car standard) than Porsche has sold Boxsters in any year. People want a back seat.

I'm looking at 996 C4s and CaymanS's. In a perfect world I would have all three at once. But for space reasons I'll have to settle for just two. But thos second hand Maserati Gran Sports look tempting maybe for just one year. No need to buy new with such great bargains rolling around.
