The only thing I've heard of about was that Porsche was having major issues with people buying new inventory here to export back to Asia to sell as grey market cars.
Since foreign duty tax in Taiwan/China/HK is so high, even factoring in shipping and import costs, a profit could still be turned.
Porsche Canada eventually started "banning" certain people who were caught doing this, and then those people started offering 10-20K for people to buy the car under their name, transfer to the exporter then export for profit.
That's all I really know about this matter, never thought it would eventually get to a point where they would start asking for retainers, guess thats how bad the problem became.
