Porsche branding reaches new low - golf cart

http://www.netcarshow.com/porsche/2006-cayenne_golf_car_prototype/

I hope this isn't real, press release sounds authentic though

Why should this be a surprise, they've sold their name for damn near every other product.

It's more cute than disturbing - sorry.

Guess this makes me a hick, right?

I'd rather see a VW Bug in this get up, and not a Porsche of anykind - but it's not like they desecrated the image of the 911 or Boxster.

My parents have a harley davidson golf cart. I dig it.

Have you guys seen some of the blingin' golf carts they make? I've seen a hummer, and a bunch of custom carts with thousand-watt sound systems & dvd players...

Needs Fuchs and raised, round headlights like an early car. That would be cool.

Porsche hasn't, but there is that design company called Porsche Design that has redesigned about everything you can think of.

I have even seen pd Steak knives

Chroma Knives

Chroma Knives are ideal for the home or professional chef alike. The Chroma Knife handle is designed by F.A. Porsche and is constructed of 18/10 stainless steel. The blade is made of high-quality Japanese Type 301 steel. The blade of all Chroma Knives is carefully sharpened by the hand of a master. Chroma Knives feature a seamless perfection and hygienic transition from blade to handle unlike any other.
