I think they missed the boat on the company name, they need to change the D to an R.

I am wondering what field they drug it out of?

Looks like they have their own in-house dwarf for a mascot.

I bet it gets good gas mileage with that little motor. It must be a rare collectable.

The broken driving light also saves weight.

How are the carpets in such good condition when the rest of the car is garbage?

First thing I noticed was the improper offset on the wheels ( look like 924 or 911 style 6 inch phone dials )
And the properly adjusted rear wiper in 'reclining mode'. It apparently gave up the ghost along with one of the cylinders ..........

Those are the first things that jumped out at me as well. Those are probably late offset phonies.

My first 944 (85.5) came with three installed. The girl that I bought it from wanted to know why it was so slow from a standstill. I told her the tires were rubbing on the struts because the wheels had the wrong offset.

I kept scrolling down to see the VW swapped engine bay. Then the fail set in.

They should rename their company to rusty old cars. That thing is a pile of painted rust.
