I don't think Porsche needs an entry level car. They have VW and Audi for that purpose. BMW and Mercedes need entry level cars b/c they don't have sister companies building cheaper cars on the same platform. Remember the Cadillac Cimarron? Same situation as Porsche is in now and that car went over very poorly.
