New Porsche is positively the `ultimate yuppiemobile'

Many consider even the base, $21,900 Porsche 924S to be a primeyuppiemobile.

If that's the case, then Porsche's new 928S 4 must be theultimate yuppiemobile. It stickers at a breathtaking $58,900.

That seems a lot for a car basically unchanged since itsintroduction in 1977. But Porsche is asking $38,500 for its 911model. Though entertaining, the 911 is an old turkey, introduced inthe 1960s.

The 928S 4 probably is too rich for the blood of most yuppies,unless they have affluent parents throwing money at them.

Yuppies, who bought Porsches decades ago before they were calledyuppies, mainly buy the 924S, $25,500 944 and $28,250 944S Porsches.
