What are some <strong>of</strong> the changes you have seen over the years as<br />
they relate to <strong>Porsche</strong> and its followers?<br />
“The typical <strong>Porsche</strong> follower has dramatically changed over<br />
the last five years. The racing scene has seen the addition <strong>of</strong> GTtype<br />
vehicles. Retail purchasers have been able to capitalize on<br />
pre-owned Boxsters and Cayman vehicles, which have opened<br />
up a whole new market for the brand. Overall, the marque has<br />
become more accessible.”<br />
Share something with us that most people may not know about<br />
Prestige Imports.<br />
“We are preparing for the future by acquiring real estate<br />
that will allow us to keep up with the demand for our products.<br />
Ultimately, we would like to separate the <strong>Porsche</strong> and Audi<br />
brands and give them their own dealerships, right next to each<br />
other.”<br />
What exciting news is coming in <strong>2013</strong>?<br />
“The Cayenne diesel, currently available, is the biggest news<br />
that we have with new models now. The 918 Spyder ($800k+<br />
price point) will be available in 2014, and we will secure a handful<br />
<strong>of</strong> those for select clientele. The new Cayman launches this year,<br />
and the new Macan (a smaller SUV, similar in size to the Audi Q5)<br />
arrives next year. The new 991 C4 in both coupe and cabriolet<br />
versions is now here and on the ground.”<br />
What is your personal favorite vehicle in the <strong>Porsche</strong> line-up<br />
and why?<br />
“The father-<strong>of</strong>-two and husband-to-one in me steers me<br />
straight to the Cayenne. You can’t beat the power and fun factor<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Turbo models, but I would go with the new six-cylinder<br />
Cayenne Diesel for efficiency and torque.”<br />
