[my porsche]

ford own jaguar and aston martin

audi owns lamborghini

bmw=bayerish motor worken as in (motor works, from the region of germany called bayern

audi logo, each one of the rings was a company started by Ferdinand peich

diablo=devil

i think the beetle has either a straight four or an opposed four (flat four)

[my porsche]

bmw is not bavarian motor works, its bayern, a region of germany!

[Delmaster]

"Bavaria" is "Bayern" in English

BMW is Bayerische Motorenwerke

[Matra et Alpine]

not that far out.

Auto Union was the orignal company formed when the four combined and THEN it became the Audi brand after VW took them over. So you were kind of there.

[VtecMini]

I was under the impression that the blue and white was in reference to the blue and white background of the Bavarian flag.

The VW bug does not use a Porsche boxer engine. It uses a VW boxer engine.

[blackspear]

The VW bug does not use a Porsche boxer engine. It uses a VW boxer engine.

But it was designed by ferdinand porsche so technically its a porsche engine

[PsychoChimp22]

Dino died of muscular distrophy .. i think :D

Wasnt enzo's bro named dino too? I thought that was why he named his son that. (I think his bro died in WW1)

[PerfAdv]

But it was designed by ferdinand porsche so technically its a porsche engine

Yes but he put it in a VW first. So, really the first Porsches got VW boxers.

[Matra et Alpine]

Well in reality the design was always disputed it was either Borgward or DKW designer who reuptedly actually designed it and Porsche blatantly copied it when he left the company. I've an article on the history, it was only in the last few years that there was an agreement made about it with VW !!!

oooooo,la di da! ;)

[PerfAdv]

How about Fox-vaagen, for VW?

How about the Modena? In the US they call it the Mo-day-na, the Spanish way.
In Italian, isn't the emphasis always on the first syllable. Making it: MOde-na?

I have found that sometimes its just better to pronounce in the local accent/norm. For example: LeMans is L'Ma but in the States most people like saying Lay-Manz. If you say L'Ma, either you're not understood or it just creates a little tension.

[Ferrari Tifosi]

lol i didnt read the whole thing i just read the first page. Ford doesnt own any company's is GM (Genral Motors) and Konessegg is from Sweden and Audi owns Lamborghini, but they appointed a presedent and all that other stuff to make the desicoins (sp?){to early in the morning to spell} and audi and Porsche are combinded so doesnt porsche have partal ownership? And a question notta trivia question. would it be sane to buy some shares of lamborghini or audi or is it more of a floppy market because lambo did realy well in singapore this past year. any advice?

[Zondaboy1]

What does diablo mean?


gm owns aston martin

fiat owns ferrari

audi owns Lamborghini

diablo means devil

[dydzi]

diablo means devil

but that was NOT the reason why the car had such a name. as every lambo, it was named after a very welll known bull, this time it was the one from XVIII century, it's famous because it killed about 5 man i think

[my porsche]

gm owns aston martin
why do so many people think that?!?!


its right here, with the oisting of ford companies! aston martin!
