Porsche is owned by the Volkswagen Group who has a completely different strategy than Tesla. Volkswagen already makes money off makes and models marketed across the spectrum of consumers (from Skoda to SEAT, VW, Audi, Porsche, Bentley, Lamborghini, Buggati) -- all of which are owned by VW.

The Volkswagen Group doesn't get nearly as much press as it should, but I suppose the incumbent doesn't need it -- they already sell hundreds of thousands of vehicles world wide every year.

That being said, Tesla certainly has a long ways to go, but I think they have a good strategy going forward. Not to mention, I think the Model S is a beautiful car.
