I'm not saying they look exactly alike, but the two cars have very similar lines. The headlights and the rear end especially. If you think about it it's not that surprising. Ferdinand Porsche started Volkswagen for Hitler and gave him the Bug. Then he wanted to build sportscars so you can see the Bug's influence in his first cars. As the Porsche evolved it still retained the similar lines as the venerable VW car. I think that the 80's body styles looked most unique, but then the newer sleeker more rounded body styles are going back to the older days and look more like the Bug.
But that's just my humble opinion. Either way I think the car is gorgeous and I would like to own one... I just liked the "stop, take the top off, store it, and go" targa better.
