If it's a 4 door sedan I'm a bit disappointed.... competiton is tough out there .... there are many very fine makers ....

My concern is, it's going to be difficult to keep the product different from the "mainstream". So far a Porsche is a Porsche and you recognize it in a split of a second...
Trying to compete with BMW, MB, Lexus, Bentley, Maserati, Jaguar,... it's a complete different ball game. These makers are on their own turf, their core business....and they are very good at it.
I'm sure Porsche will come with a distinctive product and they will raise the bar even higher with a "ultra-high" performance sedan...

as a Porsche fanatic I'm very happy because I'll be able to buy one and use it as a daily driver with kids on board...

Good point about the economy of scale.
The S600, S65AMG, 760Li etc. are all technology savoir faire windows for the big firms. I don't think they make that much profit with them.

I just hope that Porsche adds the right power (and weight) to their 4-door sedan. And even if the rumors are true that the 4-door sedan is based on the current Bentley GT, I hope that Porsche offers a lower weight and better driving dynamics.
