Reading between the lines and jumping to an illogical conclusion - what they are actually trying to say with this " lifestyle " smoke screen mumbo jumbo is that Butzi is back on the inside and is the new head of design!

I hear that Ferdinand Piech is also looking for something to keep himself busy and is available immediately...

More to follow, back to calculating angles from the grassy knoll.

Jim, I think you're pretty much right! Although I'm not sure what value Butzi's name has to most current Porsche purchasers since they most likely have no CLUE who he is!!!! I do think there has always been confusion regarding Porsche Design and Porsche AG and this will, at least, solve that problem.

hmmm, the way I read it, Porsche AG is taking over Porsche Design.

"Porsche AG will have majority control over the new organization"

Perhaps the tech-equipment designer have been bad, and have not been carrying enough jelly-bean shape in the products. I mean really, the Porsche mountain bike doesn't even share the Boxster headlights. . . what were they thinking. . . where's the product ID continuity?

Does this mean I'll be able to order parts for my watch from Pelican? The %@^#$@ start/stop button has broken off twice and it's $30 and two months to get it ordered from Switzerland by pd USA.
