You can count me as one of the folks that did not think Porsche would survive even with VW taking them over. SUVs is what saved them and the cars for the much fewer car lovers out there.

Ford FINALLY has a CEO and a leadership team that realizes that Lincoln Luxury DOES NOT have to be GERMAN copy to survive or succeed. We can have Tight enjoyable to drive American Auto's that also still have a proper plush American seating condition rather than the over rated hard as rock German seating design and engineered auto's.

I was a longtime Porsche fan, even after VW ownership (and that is exactly what it was, in the end) but they are just ridiculous high for all the wrong reasons, even with being great driving machines. I miss my dads "undercover VW" '74 914. That had the old VW flat four with fuel injection. My dad swapped out the fuel injectors for a couple of twin barrel Webers, that ran great for about a month before the backfiring problems started and ruined everything lol. Such a fun little car that I only got to ride in, as my dad was not about to let his 16 year old son drive his baby, especially after that same son got a speeding ticket in an '81 Chevette (yes, it is possible to get one in a Chevette).

Right, it is amazing the eco box's that can still get you into trouble with speeding tickets compared to performance auto's.

I actually got more tickets in my 69 Ford F250 Camper special than any other auto I owned.
