Okay, that argument is sound against BMW and MBZ, but I'm sorry... the Porsche Boxster is a hell of a lot more focused as a performance automobile.
If any Porsche deserves such criticism (vanity over performance), it's that rediculous Cayenne SUV...(God, I cringe at the very thought of that thing).

That horrid schiess-wagen has no place in the Porsche lineup. It is an absurd contradiction of vanity, conspicuous consumption and flawed driving dynamics.

[Yes, I said flawed.]

So there. :eek3:

Pardon my intensity.
