for daily driving, comparing a mass production luxury car like a Porsche to far more expensive exotics is apples to oranges. The latter are less like transportation and more like trophies.

Relative to their total, and surging, production numbers, very few 911's, Boxster/Cayman are driven daily. The Lexus equivalent on daily usage would be be the Panamera and Cayenne, and not surprisingly account for more than half of all of Porsche sales. And after all, Porsche went to the Japanese to figure out how to mass produce reliable cars without nearly going bankrupt again. Which VW will rubbish very soon, well at least the reliable part, the profitability via over-pricing they've nailed.

p.s.
Anyone notice that 991 owner has gotten progressively angrier and sarcastic with each new video?
Man I'll stick with my hooptie.
