Default And so you have hit on the irony...
both the 356 and the TT are based on humble downscale platforms. You can see the perfect balance of tribute even extends to the parts bins of the respective eras. ;-)

Default It was, but it resonated like a bastard (although it spooled very fast)
now a Millteck 100 mm.

Default It figures to be since the Ghia was a *poor* man's 356 in the day ;-)

yup, funny. A pristine/restored Ghia costs about as much as a used TT now!
