That’s the 903, got to be one of the ugliest cars ever built. Thankfully it’s only a concept

One name that needs to come back a Premium Czech car.
As the world now has Skoda.

TATRA!

Think about it! redesign the body to make it less Porsche
and put a huge friken fin up its back.

Oh yeah and spend another 1 billion engineering the V8
to hand out the back of the chassis.

Correct, possibly even until 2017 in an effort to claw back the money spent on developing the vehicle.

I understand VW will axe it only after it has run its course. They just are not going to build a renewd version under the Porsche label.

what does use the platform mean? use the chassis? or like make it look better? cause i don’t think it’s possible to make the panarama look better, it’s too ugly

A lot like Holden with the VE Platform… it too cost $1bn to develop and is the best RWD platform in the GM Line-Up

Maybe VAG have plans for a S-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d Golf GTi with a Quad Turbo W12 and AWD.

Quote [Article]: “While the board of Volkswagen AG may have already voted to axe the Panamera from the Porsche line-up post merger, a report published by Edmunds today has said the four-door coupe’s platform will be used by at least one of the company’s other premium brands.”

Why is it that CA can make reference to other automotive websites – such as Edmunds [insideline] but the car enthusiasts who comment on this site aren’t allowed to under the code of conduct… is it because they are scared that we will find out that’s where CA plagiarise most of their articles from and then claim to be “exclusive”?
