Your own words were:

"Here is how you can tell of REAL Porsche.

It was made by the Porsche company"


Are you suddenly changing your judgement criteria on REAL Porsches to suddenly encompass all cars that ultimately have legal liability to Porsche?

If that's the case my cousin's Skoda Octavia is a real Porsche too!

No need for the attitude. If Porsche outsources manufacturing to some other company, the car is still legally a Porsche. If you want to use some other definition, then you are free to. If Porsche Outsourced the manufacturing of its beloved 911, would you not call that car a Porsche?

Since Porsches ASSEMBLED in Germany contain many outsourced parts (the transmissions are made in Japan), I would suggest your distinction is rather useless in everyday use.. At the end of the day, the nameplate, the title, the legal manufacturer are all Porsche.

Again, lets watch your tone if you choose to respond. This topic is certainly not worth any bickering.
