He who laughs last is the slowest thinker!

He is now the Porsche Owner's Club's problem. And I don't think they will be as tolerant as we were.

Haha, He bought a Porsche RS?
An Original RS or just a REAL1?

The circle of life continues....

I'm glad to have met Even via this forum. He was fun, as long as you didn't take him (or yourself) too seriously. I wish him all the very best.

The original air cooled '73 2.7 RS is the only REAL genuine authentic RS. Today's Porsches are water-cooled and made by VW/Audi.

Depends on how you define "together." But you know what I meant. Someone just likes to argue. Porsche's are mass produced automobiles today and some would argue no longer really Porsches, because "together" changed.

i have had them all, my current 991s is as genuine and sharp as my first 911sc

and btw the first 356 were some slightly tuned beetles, nothing else, nowadays vws and porsches dont have anything in common

Well, that's debatable!
They do use common parts - like the same anti-emissions-by-pass-technology.

Enjoy.

Volkswagen emissions scandal widens to include Porsche and Audi, regulators say - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

All in good fun, but where there's smoke there's fire.
The way corporates run thief business, it just goes to show that government is merely "middle management"

Totally disagree. After 1998 (993), the last air-cooled Porsche, they're not REAL Porsches any more IMO. They went from hand-made to mass-produced with the introduction of the 996. And today's 991 is the Titanic in comparison to the older models and the traditional 911 shape lost.

The 991 is a great car, but VW/Audi/Porsche combo lost its direction/way in terms of the 911. Today's Porsche has '14 GT3 engine fires, recalls for emissions defeating software, getting rid of manual transmissions (but now bring it back in the next gen GT3), etc.

Nah, I'll just continue to enjoy my REAL air-cooled Porsche.

Perhaps there is no notification of REAL status as it relates to a Porsche?

I mean, I can see him getting any 73 and then running around saying, "Look! It is real!"

What a wonderful concept "reality" is.

Hmmmm....
