i know Kurt is only teasing, but I have to comment on this whole "not a real porsche thing"...

What is the basis for the "not a real porsche" argument? The 914-4 and 924 didn't have Porsche engines. The 944 DID, but was built in an Audi factory. Does this make it "not a real Porsche?" By that logic, the Boxster isn't a "real Porsche" either because many are built in Saab factories.

What else? The fact that the 944 was an offshoot of the 924, which was originally designed for VW? So? It was designed BY PORSCHE for VW.

Also, 911 seem to forget that the first 356s had VW engines....

Who's driving the REAL Porsche now?
