Before the Porsche 911 was introduced in late 1963, it was known by the factory during its development as Project 901 (a number with no significance outside of keeping Porsche's many projects easily organized; every car under development by Porsche receives a 3-digit number identifying it). When it came time to put the car into production, Porsche planned on leaving the new model as the 901. French car manufacturer Peugeot, however, objected on the grounds that it held the rights in France to any car name consisting of three numbers with a zero as the center digit. Thus, Porsche decided to bump the zero up to '1' and the 911 was born.
In the Twilight series, the character who drove a Porsche 911 Turbo was Alice Cullen. Alice is known for her love of luxury and fast cars.
In "New Moon," Alice Cullen uses her ability to see the future to predict where a Porsche 911 Turbo will crash, allowing her to steal it while creating the illusion of a crash. She sees the crash happening near a shopping mall, so she positions herself there ahead of time and pretends to be a shopper, ready to take advantage of the situation.

Because Porsche wants its race cars to look like their street cars. It costs too much to run Formula 1 and Porsche never did well in it.

First, they have a premium product and do not discount it. This allows them to make large profits despite having a relatively low margin in comparison to others.
Second, it has been (until the recent moves by VW) a closely held corporation with a specific vision and a brand, this has built brand identity and equity and allowed them to sell their cars for such high prices.
Third, they have a low overhead and have advanced to modern production techniques. While this diminished the "character" of the hand made air cooled cars, it allows great economy of scale, and thus, greater profits.
Finally, they have had excellent financial people manipulating the derivatives, options and stock markets. In 2008, their profit exceeded their sales - which should not make sense, but it happened because of the returns on their investments.
