Porsche has really sold out.

Phant0m51 · 12-03-2007, 02:21 PM

When Porsche started making SUV's I was disappointed because one of my favorite Sports Car makers 'sold out' and started producing stuff for soccer mom's.

Now they've really sold out, and I mean bad.

Think of it. Early branding. Kid has a Porsche bob sled and really likes it. From then on, all that kid is thinking of is Porsche, and when he gets old enough, will try and buy a Porsche car (possibly a new one).

You can't blame them.

It's brilliant and surprisingly affordable. I actually felt the SUV was more of a sour note. Despite all of it, they are still a force.

not nearly as bad as ferrari

Puma Ferrari F1 Team Sneakers (FR6651)

Hell, Ferrari has even lent it's name to a brand of laptops.

For kids?
That sled is something I'd want.

If selling out makes them smart I guess they are sell outs.

Ferrari has clothes and fashion accessories as well.

I wonder if it's even a good sled. I always thought that type of sled sucked as a kid.. that Porsche probably gets its ass kicked by $3 plastic disc sleds from Wal-Mart.

First exotic car manufacture to make a mini fan loses.

	Say goodbye to our beloved planet. Because there is alot more money to be made in emitting greenhouse gasses, than curtailing emissions. Get out of the box, then recycle it.
