seriously i had recently the opportunity to work with a big german multinational,
the problem the germans have is the total lack in management capacity, they are very nice very friendly and so "democratics" but not so compatible anymore with any form of top down management,
this is due to the reaction to their past century heavy history, the only way they found to counter the giant amount of problems was to eradicate any form of decisionism (and thus personal responsability...) any "man and his dog" working for these companies can say any stupidity and no one can fire them as should be
remember the reason why we have fugly white socks pscb calipers ? Just because
he (the sub manager of that pscb project)
liked so much that color...

same story for the 992 door handle
and the same for the uncohesive squared front hood or the tokyo taxy rear bar light and so on (give me the name of who authorised the nubbin..)

anyway to understand the reasons behind such an iconic design evolution as the 911 you have to understand the culture driving that evolution

Ok, so lets see... Bosch, Siemens, Thyssen Krupp, SAP, Volkswagen, Audi, Mercedes, BMW, not to mention Porsche, BASF, etc., all have management problems and you were the smart guy from the “head office” that were there to help when suddenly realizing none of them had any balls! Who’re you... Donald Trump? Time to raise the bar of the discussion...?

More simply the un-cohesivness of the 992 shows clearly the total lack of leadership in Porsche, eventhough this lack might be due to VW influence, just look the new Audi A7 A6 2018 rear and interior design, doesn't look like the 2019 992? Anyway despite a 992 rear and interior design remember to me more the Audi A6 station wagon than a 911 the board (any?) who (should have?) authorised such an idioc, to say one, like the PSCB white caliper, is made by walking deads (if any still semi alive over there) otherwise such a craziness as the 992 would have never happened

Rick Brooklyn, I’ve just reported you for going too far and I hope the forum reacts. I don’t have a problem with people writing page up and page down about hating a car if they want to do that. I start having a problem when posters feed off of each other and try to make the latest post overdo the previous. I also have a problem when I see posts start bashing named persons at Porsche and then go on to bashing Europeans in general. However, I can live with that and laugh at the ignorance, but when you ask for a video with Hitler showing support for your thoughts, then you just passed a line that should have serious consequences for not only you but this whole thread and forum in general. If you, or others, don’t see the seriousness of this then you should get your history books out to get a clue. At 2PM the SS broke into my grandparents house and arrested my grandfather for being in the resistance movement. He was sent on to concentration camp... he lived to tell the story, but you obviously don’t understand or have any knowledge of what you think is an ok reference to use. Ultimate bashing - no problem, but there still are certain rules for what is decent and not.

There are dozens of posts in this forum and elsewhere where people find the meme of the sequence from the movie untergang with subtitles hilarious, including everyone who posted in the thread I linked. Out of fairness, I would only ask you that you complain about all of those users, too, and have them banned alongside me, because I have done nothing different from them.

Having said that, I apologise again and I would welcome a temporary or better permanent ban of my account, I spend too much time here anyway.
