The air-cooled VWs sort of maintain the spirit of the original Porsche. And they're easy and cheap to work on.

Re: Porshe 356 replica question

if you wanted to get a honda engine in you'd first have to find a transmission that bolts up to it that also allows the engine to fit properly, then you'd have to put some big honkin' fans on the radiator to cool it since it won't be getting the air flow back there that it was built for.

My 356 uses a 2.0 turbo Subaru engine (300hp).
