Porsche is designing reading glasses now

If youth is wasted on the young, then wealth is surely wasted on the old. That might explain why you see so many middle-aged crises rolling around in Porsches. If the young could afford European sportscars, then Porsche Design probably wouldn't be turning out products like Porsche smoking pipes. Well, maybe they would, but they'd be used for other purposes. And these certainly wouldn't be part of the portfolio: Porsche Design Reading Glasses, for crying out loud.

The P'8134 reading frames are made out of titanium and, mind you, are probably the nicest pair of reading glasses out there. I'm sure if my father were to trade in his Lexus for a Porsche, it'd be these reading specs he'd be forgetting to take off before getting into the car.
