I agree Porsche is getting ahead of itself.

BUT THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH IT!

Porsche don't make allot of cars compared to BMW, MERC and Jag.

Those who can afford to say bye bye to half their car's worth after only 4 years are growing in numbers. The wealthy today are getting wealthier and their ravenous desire of luxury goods is approaching that level we saw in the 80's.
Women buying $10,000 handbags makes dropping $70K on "a Porcshe" look like
chump change to them.

Porsche is cashing in while the the getting is good. As interest rates climb Porsche like Merc and BMW will sell fewer and fewer cars. They are aware of this and they aren't the least bit concerned about us regular folk who ******************** about the Cayman being more expensive the Boxster. They are looking to milk max profits on all their cars while demmand is still strong for a car brand that simply has attained a level of exclusivity that won't soon be undone unless these newer Porsches start forcing their well heeled owners to more frequent trips to the dealer than they can tolerate away from the exclusive mall and golf course. Unreliable cars is the kiss of death. Expensive? pffftt...
