It is about staying true to the thing that made your reputation.

Land Rovers were the go-anywhere do-anything vehicles that conquered africa and other uncivilized places. I have a 1972 Series III 109 Safari Wagon and it is still awesome in its simple rugged design and easy servicability. But LR has strayed far from that to be come the Mall Crawler of choice for pro ball players, rappers and succesful men's wives.

Porsche made their name producing fast sports cars and race cars. Now the line up has an SUV and a luxury saloon. Nice cars don't get me wrong but I hope the focus says on HP and handleing and not on electric wizardry and soft leather.

It should be interesting to see what happens.
