I got my Autoweek a few days ago and they had an article on the VW Bluesport as being "a spiritual successor to the 914." OK, I can see that being mid-engine and all, but today I get an email from the Porsche Club of America with a link to a write up about the Bluesport. Now they are calling it (Bluesport) the "new 356". How can that be? Does anyone know of Porsche making a mid-engine 356? It sounds like the lowly 914 is getting disowned again.....

It makes more sense for marketing to associate the new car with a legend and a car that now is in the stratosfer price wise. True, the 914 is a better example of a mid-engine but not nearly as close to the breast as the 356. Were gaining on the beetle
off-spring but were not there yet. |
