That's quite a stretch. Only an idiot would buy a marked up car from a dealer instead of going elsewhere. That same idiot likely wouldn't negotiate a very good deal out of a Porsche dealer or they would have done the same at Honda.


That 9 grand is more like 12 now inflation adjusted and those two cars were not in the same price category. That's almost as bad as saying the Focus RS and C7 Corvette are price competitors just because some dealers were marking the Ford up above 50 grand with "gotta have it first" tax when it was newly released and a few stupid idiots were actually willing to pay it.
