It can be a problem. VW's not stellar record of reliability could mean more VW in Porsche sports cars.
Also, They've already lifted Panamera interiors wholesale and shoe-horned them into first the Panamera Coupe (aka the Carrera) and now the Bosxter. Porsche did this with the 996 and 986 out of necessity to avoid bankruptcy but I think VW will do it to Volkswagenify Porsche into a vanilla luxury brand with lots of cost-cutting and inflated options like PDK on all its cars, eventually..
