Remember when Porsche was the attainable exotic? Where it wasn't quite as flashy as the Italians or British but more reliable and offered a reasonable puchase price and ownership cost? Those days are long gone. 250K puts it in a territory where there are a lot more exciting and exotic options.

University students used to afford used ones and be able to buy a new one after they got a real job..... now they have to be upper management or retired. .... also is built for people starting retirement age.

[@SomeGuysGarage]

Everything Porsche has moved up market, which makes me hope that someday they'll introduce a new entry level vehicle again below the Macan/Boxster/Cayman...of course they won't, but a Porsche hot hatch or sports coupe (like a modern 944) would be just so awesome.

@@chartreux1532the average KZbin viewer is not buying cars priced over 30k let alone 250k. This serves no journalistic purpose, that is the point he’s making. Personally I think it’s still cool to see cars I would never even consider buying but given Doug has been steadily decreasing his reviews of normal cars in favour of very rare cars coupled with his insistence of re-reviewing the same car half a dozen times and making “think pieces” on market price manipulation, it’s annoying to see the majority of the content be quite frankly unrelatable or blatantly self-serving. Doug’s videos used to feel like he’s having fun exploring cars and telling us about it. Ever since he started Cars and Bids it’s now just Doug trying to get everyone to use his website. It’s annoying.

Doug needs to have a break down video of how the scores work and what theyre worth. He does so many side videos, this is needed I think because its really never been done since a very long time ago back when their was an "importance" factor. I want to understand how this is a value of 5? I want to understand how he decides that. Its an objective score like speed. 250k value of 5/10. I would think this would be >4. 250k can buy you a nice house in some places, and a 100k can buy you a lot of very fast, very nice cars. Why would this one be a 5 rather than a 2 or an 8. 🤔
