What the hell...why not? PCA already accepts sports utes and will soon embrace 4 door sedans...

Porsche kinda forced the PCA to. You can't really say we are the Porsche club and you own a Porsche but you can't join. Yeesh loosen your panties Paul. They are a company that needs to make money. Those cars make money so they sell them.

I think there is difference between a company that makes cars and trucks and also makes a sports car and a company that makes sports cars but also makes cars and trucks.

The forum that the link refers to appears to be a joke by some PCA forum member.

You are wayyy to young to remember the "we only build sports cars" advertising of Porsches... Enjoy your membership. I had my good times, now it's your turn.

PT cruiser

Unclebilly if you keep talking like that, we will revoke your membership in WRR. club and I will sell my p-cars. No way will I be affiliated with an PT cruiser.

what's next.

Unclebilly - Fritz is serious about this - He even crashed his Neon-bodied PT Cruiser to prove his point
