How much more money do you think it cost for Porsche to put this option on a car ?



I hear you, but you know what--you can say that about any option on a Porsche. X51 is expensive, but at least it puts the money where it matters.

Would I prefer for X51 to be $5,000 or even $10,000 (in the US it's $16,900)? You bet. Porsche unquestionably prices the option to curtail demand, and factory power from Porsche has never been cheap. I have to tell you, however, I am loving my X51 and am I ever glad I got one of the Club Coupes (the built in discount in the Club Coupe's pricing mitigates the cost of X51 down to about what the rest of the world would pay for it).
