Dear reader, dear reader,
A lot was whispered and rumored internally about the amount of the severance payment for Porsche for Porsche at the beginning of the year at the beginning of the year.

As so often, a second look at the statistics is worth it: only 115 (or 7 percent) of the new cars went to private buyers, but almost 80 percent to car rental companies or by self -approval to the dealers. Real successes look different. Perhaps the 20,000-euro electrocolor “Dolphin Surf” just presented will be able to ride the perfect wave.
