First inconsistency. Butzi Porsche designed the 911. #57

Erwin Komenda did. Butzi (mouth breather) may have been in the building (meaning he surely did something but it was not all him). Komenda spent much time with Reutter on manufacturing the 911.

The pr*cks assasinated Komenda. Back stabbing MF'rs. I have read he left for a couple years and read also he died while still employed.

Oh shiet, there goes my AFIB. Thanks, Marty.

Article about the creation. Says Ferry put two techs with Butzi to make sure it was not just an (another?) art project. No details and that probably means something.

Komenda also was integral to the 904 development but I'm confident Butzi was into that deeper.
