Maybe Porsche should start selling cars at a deep discount with a provision they get driven hard (on the track), by the owner, a minimum of 7 days a year? They could even monitor use such as RPM, speed in gear, milage etc. Not in a big brother sort of way, and not to encourage speeding, but to "give something back" to the grassroots enthusiasts.

They guy who wants it for his mistress or just to HAVE A VALET PARK IT FOR HIM in front of a trendy joint would pay full price or even a premium equivalent to the enthusiast's discount.

That would give everyone what they want.

I agree! Porsche should just sponsor all P-car ownersd with 1 track day per year. They should make a big event out of it.
