“It’s never too soon to set a child on the road to mega-consumption,” and the new Porsche Go-Kart does the trick for less than $1,000. Built for young drivers who weigh up to 110 pounds, the pedal-powered, steel-framed über-toy features a sport seat, composite rims, low-profile inflatable tires, and Porsche’s familiar Stuttgart coat of arms. The trouble with the long slog of childhood, up until now, was “the complete lack of luxury vehicles.” Suddenly, being a kid doesn’t look so bad.
