As a modern automobile company, Porsche offers its customers all the financial
services connected with the purchase of a car, including leasing, hire-purchase,
financing and vehicle insurance. In addition, the Porsche Card represents an
attractive credit card option. Porsche dealers supply these financial services
quickly, securely and easily, enabling the company to satisfy in full the wide
variety of demands presented by Porsche customers. Leasing contracts, for
