The Cayeene has been a success for Porsche, no doubt.

However, they were already the highest ROI company when the Cayeene debuted, thanks to the Boxster and then, the re-vitalized 911.

To be fair, these guys have made many good decisions over the last 9 yrs. They have also made some lousy ones in the previous 10 yrs.

So, lets not make them out to be omnipotent, they are not.

I do think the Cayman will ultimately bring very very few new purchasers to Porsche.

Ditto the coming 4 seater.

I could be wrong, they haven't asked me for my opinion anyway.

PS-their quality could be WAY better, as well as their attitude.
