Porsche Entry-Level Model Still Under Consideration

FIRST IT WAS ON, then it was off.

Now it appears that a low-cost lightweight Porsche model could be back on the cards again, with German media outlet Automobilwoche reporting that the marque is still considering a 'cheap n' cheerful' (well, relatively) entry-level model to sit beneath the Boxster.

Rumblings of such a car have existed since March, however the plans were assumed to have been put on the backburner after the global financial crisis scuttled VW's BlueSport roadster project: the car that was expected to form the basis for the 'Baby Porsche'.
