Where can I get one? Will it retrofit a 997.1??? More importantly-can I change my key for a cool VW key that flips out like a switch blade? Last one-what is the weight?

This is too funny mate!! Thanks for posting.

If no link is provided I ignore the post, and search for the news story online if it's newsworthy, on the premise that not everyone's cut-&-paste skills are flawless.

Yeah, it may have seemed silly for me to point out why that logo is blatantly false. But it was for the benefit of those who've come to trust members here who post items of news, especially with regard to this disconcerting subject, without a corroborating link. Hopefully people will demand a link from anyone who posts supposed items of news without a requisite link from now on. And if no link is provided, the assumption that it's a joke is a safe one.
Blaaah.

I'm thinking most of the non car folk in the World already thought Porsche/Audi/VW always was one just one big company.

I spotted a porsche with a Lamborghini-porsche logo the other day...sorry forgot to take a picture..I was so surprised..car looked fantastic....maybe being owned by a rich car manufacturer isn't so bad afterall....they might even redesign the pananrenamrera and make it look pretty.

This looks a lot like the Forest Green 1969 VW 311 ( Fastback) I had many, many years ago.
