Amazing...so if Porsche did NOTHING with restoration or parts supply, you'd all be upset saying they have forgotten all about their roots, but since they <gasp> want to make money at that aspect of their business, they're evil.
Porsche's are a luxury, not a necessity. They can and will charge whatever the market will bear. If 356's go out of favor, of course they'll stop supporting/restoring them. If the Cayenne suddenly stopped selling, they would move onto something new. That's what businesses do. Business 101. Again, funny how everyone can be upset and call Porsche greedy because they have the audacity to make money off you while you're typing on your computer/phone/tablet using software from either Microsoft, Apple, Google, etc. that make 70+% margins.... I guess I fall into the Greedy group since I expect to make money on my work, my ideas and things I sell. |

Well coming after a group like this which is basically giving them free advertising makes me say yes. They are as greedy as they come. And looking at how they market their stuff I would also add GREEDY. But that is just me... |
