Porsche crashes into controversy in the ultimate 'short squeeze' (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif)

(They got the captions on a couple pix all wrong.)

And this: PORSCHE PUT GERMANY IN A BOX-STER

In light of what's been going on in all the markets, I guess I should applaud Porsche for their business savy.

It has seemed for quite a few years that Porsche has been more interested in making money than cars - the old philosophy of building the best has been replaced by how cheaply can we make this (look at Mercedes "merger" with Crysler). Bad for enthusiasts, but good for the family and share holders in Porsche. Business is business!
