Pondering a little more, Porsche reaches deep into our pockets, and subsequently creates business for Pedro, because they are very clever. They make a great product, with many cheap accouterments, and, price most everything a la carte, Their pricing structure tricks us into thinking our cars are expensive, when in reality they are usually ridiculously expensive. Base price means little with Porsche, so your ordered or loaded, 'off-the-floor, car gives you the feeling it's a special custom vehicle, In realty you're just paying for lots of stuff that competitors much cheaper cars have included in their base prices. Very clever, slight of hand marketing, that Porsche has been extremely successful at across their model lines, for decades. Oh, and STILL lots of cheap plastic and vinyl to keep Pedro in business.
......and we still keep coming back
