What Is It?, Silly Question Options

[Larmo63]

I am not new to classic cars, or Porsches in general. As a relative newcomer to the 914, I look at it, think about it, and try to come to terms with it as to what it is. By that, I mean is it more Volkswagen, or is it a Porsche? It may seem like a silly question, it has a multitude of P-car parts, but says VW on the glass. The deckled says Porsche, but the steering column is pure Volkswagen. The transmission and engine (in mine) is a Porsche design made by Volkswagen? It is a radical departure from the Karmann Ghia which it replaced. Weird. Split personality disorder?

If it's not a Porsche, you'll have a hard time convincing the DMV otherwise. That's whats on my registration at least.


That being said, anyone who really cares that much probably should be lumped in the with rest of the "P-car" crowd who cares far more about what badge is on the back of their car than what it can actually do in the hands of someone who knows how to really (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) it. Call mine whatever you like. I just drive the wheels off of it.
