fwd **** propagation

I'm under the impression that Porsche is among very
few car mass production companies that are impervious to
the "valuable input" from the marketing folks.

Bmw was like that before the numb electric
steering went on 3xx (in F90?) and the upcoming front wheel drive
1xx ****mobile.

Am I wrong here and did Porsche manage to produce
some ****ty cars in their history I'm unaware of?

Please update my perspective.

The thread does not have to be limited to cars
and the ****ty newage driveline layouts :^)
