HardDrive....I don't know. I just think it is wrong. I think they should have done a "flying buttress" design for the rear of that car along the lines of the Jaguar XJS and the Volkswagen Phaeton. The rear of the car is indeed far more functional, but if you are buying a $100k car, then it occurs to me that it needs to look GREAT from any angle. The volk in Stuttgart wanted the car to LOOK like a Porsche from every angle, and well...they got what they wanted. Only....not every type of car should look like a Porsche! Can you imagine if Porsche built a pickup truck? How would that be handled successfully? I don't think it is possible.

Porsche is now a part of VAG, something that probably should have happened about 30 years ago. As long as VAG doesn't run Porsche like a car company from Detroit, it simply means that we won't see products such as SUV's and sedans in the future, which I think is probably a good thing.

N!
