Kind of overstating things. Lambo has made a concept car made up as

Besides... a Lambo is really just a VW on steroids these days... Ferrari is
a Fiat underneath it all... same with Alpha and Lancia (if Fiat still runs
thier assembly lines in Europe at all).

Porsche is the last of the independents...

Well, if someone gave me a 328 to drive around, I'd chuck the
motorcycles (no, not the 993) out of the garage to make room. Post haste.

Well, we won't mention the 356, 911 or 924/944/968 series I suppose...

I guess the only Porsche without a VW begining is the Boxster???

Ahh, but the Boxster is a curvaceous 914, isn't it?

Well... not if you go with the notion that the 944 motor is half a 928
motor, since the 944 motor replaced the 924's motor which was based on
VW's LT motor...

The VW version of the Kevin Bacon rule would apply to the 928...
