The Restoration program references the Sport Club Classic and a couple others, but Recommission is a Carrera GT only program. Seems like a lot of overlap?

Yes, VW could learn a thing or two. Try getting a turn signal for a Corrado. Or anything else with a 535 part#.

Maybe someone close to the Atlanta facility will stop buy and find out what they will do for restoration, what the ball park costs may be, and what it means for future availability of parts.
