IMO most folks with P cars have them paid off or are savvy with financing, vs. BMW basically lives off its great lease deals, which allows people to step into BMWs more easily. I think the average P car owner is going to sit tight but no need to start dumping cars. It's the guy living beyond his means with a lease that will probably need to start getting out of their lease to stop the bleeding.

In that same vein, I think you'll see Porsche dealerships start to give better discounts but they aren't going to upend their model and start giving leases away the way BMW does.
Ehh I think your somewhat right about P car owners but if you ever venture over to rennlist you will find every other thread revolving around concern for resale value, depreciation, etc.
