i know there are a few ppl on there that own and/or are into vws.. so come on out. proceeds go to Duke Children's Hospital.

we (ncdubs) have been kicking around the idea of a fairly large show for awhile now, and its finally coming together. everyone's welcome.

Joel, i expect to see you in the beetle if you still have it.

ever noticed how much the cayenne looks like the touareg? or even why the touareg has a 5x130 porsche bolt pattern when afaik vw has no other vehicles with 5x130... they're built on the same (cayenne) platform

also, porsche bought up a bunch of vw stock back in march (rumors of a takeover).. the companies are very very closely related.

bmws are invited to attend, but there are no show classes for them. i have barely been involved with the show, i just wanted to let ppl on here know in case there was any interest

They invited porsche because they wanted something there that had value.

well i guess if you count the original VWs being designed by ferdinand porsche, then yes..

vw and porche were the same company in the late 40s and early 50s

10/30/2007 7:42:51 PM

i know all about porsche and vw's history, dumbshits.

my point is that porsche owners and vw owners are generally very different demographics. that is all.

10/30/2007 10:30:22 PM

^you'll have to forgive our resident retard, he doesn't read or comprehend so good.

10/30/2007 10:39:17 PM
