I think that PAG may in fact have considered a mini-van. What manufacturer wouldn't study that possibility. In fact Mercedes (Daimler-Chrysler to be PC) designed the M series as a minivan and only changed their minds very late in the concept.
I don't think there will be a Porsche Mini-van tho

The A Class doesn't have nearly as many gismos and features that make minivans so popular with moms

Actually, I would welcome a minivan from Porsche.
It means the company will be making more money as minivans are highly profitable, and so they will not have to cut costs on the 911 in order to make money.
Plus, I can get one for my wife, dump the Honda, and have 2 P-cars (the more the better)

Torags, I see your point, but Is there anything more unstable than an SUV? Yet it is a big money maker for Porsche, with (as yet) no negative impact.

Cayenne VW V6 performance oriented? Don't think so.
I'll promise, once they roll out Porsche minivan, I'll go and **** on the door step at Stuttgart.
