It`s only a piece of jewelry if performance is not the most important desire?


the 918 will exceed all your expectations - I promise

It's performance is less important in this particular case, it's a really cool piece of jewelry.

Further, Porsche is quite smart to make a "hybrid" perceived as ultra-exclusive, which they hope will help the overall public acceptance of hybrids being "cool", since they are spending a lot of time and money researching the technology for the short and long term future of Porsche.
A Porsche should never be associated with "bragging rights", unless you're on another forum that involves the words luxury and play.

Yes, yes, you know what I mean. No one likes a cocky ass supercar owner, but the fact is lots of them buy the fastest, most expensive, or most rare ones just to do it and say they did. First. That's what I mean.



EDIT: Ok, not "lots of them", that wasn't fair as I know dozens of supercar owners not like that, but, you know, some of them absolutely buy more and better, etc just to one up their associates/friends.
