Which is funny, because in the U.S., the majority of Porsche buyers don't even realize that the company makes sports cars.

(This has been proven by surveys prompted by dealer feedback to Porsche N.A., then to Porsche A.G.)

Sorry, but you're wrong. Look at sales figures, then look at company priorities, then look at popular belief. SUVs dominate, and have for a number of years now.

Porsche markets itself as a sports car company, yes -- but its definition of sports car is not the same as yours, and hasn't been for well before it even began thinking about making the first Cayenne.
