Interesting article. I'm amazed he actually gets paid to write such garbage. Porsche, like all successful automotive companies, understands that it either evolves and gives the public what they want or go belly up. Only the fittest automakers survive this world's economy or get their governments to bail them out. I went from my 997 to my Cayenne because of comfort and roominess issues. I got my Cayenne for three reasons, one it had plenty of room for me and my stuff, two it was all-wheel drive, and three it was a Porsche, although be it a re-badged VW Toureg, but weren't the first Porsche cars using VW parts too? But I liked that it was badged a Porsche. Some of the best road/vacation trips my wife and I ever took were in the Cayenne. If I were in private practice and off of public assistance making the kind of money I once made, I'd be driving a Cayenne diesel with the premium plus package and all of the techno goodies.
