+1, really annoying indeed.
PCNA is dropping the ball big time, had I known that brand loyalty meant close to nothing to Porsche corporate I would have made a switch to a brand that appreciates me as a customer.
Some folks at PCNA seemed giddy when I had mentioned premium/markups for GT4 allocations. Guess none of them are long time owners of Porsche cars, otherwise they would not be making brain dead comments when speaking to actual Porsche owners over the phone.

Nothing against 918 owners, but that car is in an entirely different league technically and financially.

I'm willing to bet that most everyone on this forum is sitting above the 90% line. And while this data doesn't take into account income / debt ratios or the required variables of American greed or entitlement, it does pretty much clearly indicate that Porsche owners (those that can drop 6 figures on a car) are, as you say "the filthy rich". Not picking on anyone, but its a tiresome argument when it comes from your own camp. Its like trying to call out "gas gusslers" for destroying the environment when we are getting 4 mpg during our track sessions. Take that shti over to the Huffington Post.
