is that true?
- omnibrain 12y agoI followed the story at the time in the news and in reports. This story reports the matter, by and large, as I remember it.
- scott_karana 12y agoThey have numerous in-line citations from contemporary, independent news sources: plenty of information to determine the truth yourself. :)
- CamperBob2 12y agoIt's true, but it's also true that the Piëch and Porsche families have always been like the two guys duking it out over the island in LOST. This particular "business relationship" goes back multiple generations. The good news for owners and fans of the cars is that Porsche's doing their best work ever under the Volkswagen AG umbrella.
- MrBuddyCasino 12y agoI know nothing about cars, but I heard from someone who worked there that for some parts, they now have to send half of them back to Volkswagen because they don't meet specifications anymore, and that bureaucracy is on the rise. Just hearsay, so take this with a grain of salt.

In 1992, it was my job, as a Porsche customer, to find all of those bad parts. :-P These days the factory does a better job catching the problems before they escape the building.
