Porsche revved about China
Updated: 2011-11-23 08:06
By Li Fangfang (China Daily)

It's 2014, did this prediction come true or did the collapse of 2008 derail it?

Found this:

http://flatsixes.com/porsche-news/porsches-world-wide-deliveries-april/


Quote:
China Continues It's Growth As Porsche's 2nd Largest Single Market
All regions booked an increase in sales from January to April 2014. The response by customers in China was especially encouraging: with 13,300 deliveries, Porsche achieved 12% growth compared to the same period in 2013. Europe also developed positively: 17,800 vehicles sold represent an increase of 8% from the same period of the prior year.
Not sure how they did the math above, guess "Europe" is not a single market.
Europe 17k
USA 14k
China 13k

My guess is that one of those grads is CraigT's kid... or a relative.

There have been a few photobomb pix recently, but this doesn't seem to be one... unless you count that kind of angry looking old white guy in the upper right that seems to be holding a mic stand.

Dunno, maybe they are graduating from someplace that starts with the letter "L"? Ventura+flower leis=Loyola?
