You can toss a classic 911 engine in a Beetle with very little work required.

Would be interesting to see a beetle with a 911 engine.

Might hunt around the junk yards to find an old shit rusted out beetle and put a 911 engine in it for kicks.

Wait, fuck. I can't aford the engine.

This has been on the cards for ages. Porsche have been wanting to buy a controlling share so VW are not taken over by somebody other than the Germans.

Boxster owners are morons btw. Fnar, look at me in my Porsche. Fuck off pal, you drive a VW Passat.

I bet you can tell what size engine a car has just by glimpsing at it from 200 paces in bad light, fog, heavy rain and with dark sunglasses on.

Until the birth of our daughter, my wife drove a Boxster S.

I'm not a poor man.

I could even afford a 911, hell, I got rid of a Lamborghini when we got it.

But there are 2 reasons why she had a Boxster over a 911.

1) Its a better car to drive on UK roads, more nimble, speed difference is negligible in traffic the clogged UK.

2) Its hood system is better than a 911 convertible.
