More often that not I think this is a cheap excuse. When you look at struggling companies (take the car industry for example), I think the issue is more about missing innovation and building things that people don't want or can't afford anymore in Germany.

The future VW, BMW, Mercedes etc will be Chinese cars with the traditional marque on the hood. Maybe Porsche can survive by going independent, downsizing drastically, and selling 911's to the nostalgic faithful.
