I agree. Way too much emphasis was being put on porsche's "independence." Yes, it was nice for all the years that it worked.

But IMO they hurt the brand with the 6000 lb vehicles, that's just never been what Porsche was about, and if they had to compromise themselves to remain "independent" then they are just as good off, or better, being under VW.

Ferrari losing its independence and going under FIAT didn't hurt Ferrari, to the contrary, it allowed them to focus on what they do best - sports cars.
