VW/Porsche what to expect?

I like the 928

and if they can pull off a rwd or awd hatch that looks like that, and has good power to weight, I'm all over that too

I would still be driving a mini, if they were not FWD

I drove my MCS in the rain while still dark this morning. Mashed the pedal in a corner and it made for an eye opening trip for coffee creamer.

The smaller boxster pics looks pretty much like a MR-S.
If they can make it similar size and weight to an MR-S (or spyder or mr2 what ever they are called in your area) + the Turbo engine from Audi and it would be an absolute screamer.

The MR-S with a 2zz engine swap is amazing fun and handles incredibly, bump up the power and coilovers and its a track weapon.
