Subject: [Ferrari] SAY IT AIN'T SO

Hello,

           VW buying FERRARI in part? Wow!

            I've owned two VW Things (Type 181) and known several advanced VW tuners of the air cooled flat 4 motors. Interesting but quality conttrol and finish was iffy. Parts get high quick too. Just try pricing a set of side curtains whose windows yellow in 24 months, a wiper motor or anything for the 1973 gas heater! I had some negative experience too with the early diesel RABBIT (admittedly on Mexico sourced diesel fuel). The Mexico made HORMIGA heavy truck based on the RABBIT was durable if bog slow though.

            BUGGATI and LAMBORGHINI have survived VW ownership fairly well it seems? I can't see FERRARI and LAMBO with the same owner though. I would even hate to see VW get MASERATI, the "trident" has suffered enough under FIATand FERRARI (of course my idea of MASERATI is a TYPO 60/61/6364/65 or

151 or 450S. FIAT should keep ALFA ROMEO too, it complements FERRARI and MASERATI nicely. If anything FIAT should dump CHRYSLER on VW.

              Just my ideas,

               Dale
