    Default Porsche Pulls Out of Iran

    Seems like, Porsche closed the Iran's Porsche Dealership: Bowing to pressure, Porsche joins Hyundai in ending business with Iran | Fox News

    I personally won't really think this puts a dent in Iran's car world, as more and more independent dealerships are opening up everyday, and importing cars from Duabi, Saudi and Kuwait to Iran. But interesting move by Porsche.

    Well hopfully the pressure works and Iran gets rid of there nuc program. I'm sure it sucks for all the managers and salesguys that worked at the dealer though.

    Didn't know they WERE in Iran in the first place
    Don't think Ahmedinejad will back down from his nuclear ambitions just because he cannot buy a GT3 RS though....

    It won't help anything, but it's a good gesture.

    I was selling my custom designed AM parts to the owners of the first Porsche Dealership in Iran in over 20 years so it does make a difference to me(small busines owner) .. they are good people (the owners) Iran the political side maybe not so good ... we gave it a shot ... maybe in another 20 years we will try again ... I dont agree with whats gong on there as well so its best to do business elsewhere ...USA all the way

    Did your country impose trade sanctions against Iran?

    Well I guess it is a start, it is important that morals get put over business sometimes.
