The german text says that 200 of these cars were made. I think this also should be mentioned. That´s quite a remarkable number.
Here comes your wienerschnitzel:
Using EPS instead of simple belt driven PS turned out to one of the worst and most expensive ideas - at least in GMs history. OPEL used EPS around the mid 90s and (of course) failed. That EPS tended to break down without a warning and during rainy weather. The work around would cost as much as $2200 (€ 2000.-).…
RollsRoyce nearly went down the drain with this strategy. They are now foreign owned.
Yes, ok, I didn´t doubt that. It is something homemade- but not a Porsche.
Correct. Theoretically you could buy a totally wrecked shell with only the VINNumber parts on it, and built a Porsche around that. But it is somehow tricky with a 911, because Porsche demands all VINs in place and the raw main chassis to not be welded. (It was much easier with the 356 btw).
Even a kit car must be based on a real car. And for that “base” you get a VIN. Thats were all those Buggys came from- they were Volkswagen Beetles. If this was an aftermarket shell (wich it isn´t, it is a real one), than it must be based on something. If it is not a Porsche, it isn´t road legal- and never will be.…
This issue pops up from time to time, because Porsche shells are so expensive. But this is -like every other aftermarket shell - an original shell/main chassis containing aftermarket parts. You need at the least an original chassis PLUS chassis number PLUS papers from Porsche, otherwise you cannot make it road legal.…
The world was a better place when girls had petticoats and Lincolns had different ZIP-codes from bonnet to trunk. I am really serious about this.
