My understanding was that porsche designed the suspension and vw produced
the motors.  Agree, it's more like a vw in it's motor, but definately
tighter in suspension than any bug I've driven.  2.0 Litre motor, and I know
my Karmann Ghia of similar age had only a 1300cc motor as well.  Apparently
the professor wanted to build a porsche that students could afford!  Kent
