Re: Porsche sales for August 2016
Even lightly optioned Boxsters will be going for the $70,000+ range. Think there might be a psychological barrier with paying that much for a four banger, which is territory dominated by econoboxes. Sales may pick up, but it could take a fairly long time as people digest the concept and see that it is still a great car. It happened in the '70s when eight cylinders became a thing of the past. Many cars died because of it.
