While Porsche still has cachet too, arguably their brand since 1998 has taken a hit as well. yes, they're still making huge profits, by building more cars and SUV's, but the brand has taken a hit as well, since production of Porsches is no longer done by hand (since 1998) and they've had quite a few engine issues since 1999.

You just made my point!
The kids of today just don't seem to be into what we are all into. Too distracted by all the things with the "new age".
They are either into "tuner cars" or just don't care what they drive, as long as it gets them where they need to go
