If that guy gets near a Porsche (or another VW, for that matter), shoot him.

Where's the photo from? The red 'vert in the background looks ominously like the one I used to own. I sold it to someone in the Hamptons.

It would be better to figure out how to put a 935 engine in the normal bug behind it. Now that would ROCK!!

It's been done....

Well maybe not the whole 935 bit but how about a Super Beetle with a 911 motor that weighs in at under 1400lbs? Here is a pretty bad picture that I clipped out of an mpeg.


There used to be a bug that would carry both front wheels out of the corner when they were ice racing. A real scary ride.

Adomakin,

I'd wash the monitor of my computer but I'm laughing to hard. I'll try sleeping when I stop laughing.

On the other hand...

It's badged as an Oettinger which is a fairly reputable VW tuning firm. They make a pretty cool 4-valve head kit for the water cooled VW's back in the 80's long before VW did.



Even our old friend Roland is aware of Oettinger's stuff.
While that VW is a little over the top, I'd consider it more in the view of how we look at Kramer Slant-nosed 911 conversions rather then look down on it as a total hack job.
