There really is no more logic to how much they charge for a certain color than the fact that they can. :mad:
That's not to mention 3,000+ dollars for power seats with memory (which is not standard on nearly any of their cars; havent checked the 911 Turbo or Cayenne).

I dont know how many of saw this story a while ago:

Basically, Porsche makes an average profit of $28,247 on every car it sells. I couldnt convince myself to buy a Porsche after knowing that.
