Im also afraid that it'll lose whats made it special over the years...being integrated into "another" car maker may lead to cuts here and there to reduce expenses etc... Its like a high end clothes company being sold at walmart. You strip away the italian fabric and stick the same label on to a "made in china" product.

VW and Porsche will be together, the question remains: who will control it all? In the past couple of years, Audi (owned by VW) has played nice with Porsche in some aspects of racing. I think it's inevitable, but Porsche, being family controlled, and having 51% of VW, seem to be heading towards their goal. Andrew, this has been going on for a couple of years.
