A lot of Porsche 911 vibes coming from that one.
There was a lot of cross-over between the two. When I visited the Porsche museum in Stuttgart, I think I remember the profile outline of the 1st gen 911 was traced out on a wall and overlayed with the outline of the VW bug - way more similar than believable. I can't see a nice Porsche now and not think overpriced VW! But as you say, maybe i should view VW as underpriced Porsche...(and underpowered!).

I love VWs. My last one was a '62 convertible.
My first car was a bug. I've always loved the Fastback, Square back, and Things (kubelwagen)
My mom had a 71 Fastback, a dark green one when I was in elementary school.
