That’s why I’m surprised to see the thread and the rumors.

It goes against everything they believe as a company and Jeremy Clarkson will tear them a new one if they do come out with one, then again, Porsche _used_ to be pure performance too and now they sell cars for Long Island teens to park in front of clubs and Wallstreet bankers to justify a purchase of a Porsche by having one that you can put a baby seat into.
