A great hullabaloo is being made in Germany over the people’s car – seven million are to be built and almost ever family will have its own little car.
Volkswagen has been, is, and will always be my life.
I'm into all things German. Everything that I own is German. As far as cars go, anyway.
Porsches are glorified Volkswagens, man.
You know the Germans always make good stuff.
I used to have this Mercedes, a dark blue 450SLC, which was the most beautiful car. I'd like to have another unusual, beautiful car.
I have one car that works; it's fast and safe: an Audi 5. And I have two old cars that never work: an old Peugeot convertible, and an Alfa Romeo Giulia.
You talk about German technocracy and you get automobiles.
Mercedes does beautiful work, absolutely.
There are a lot of impractical things about owning a Porsche. But they're all offset by the driving experience. It really is unique. Lamborghinis and Ferraris come close. And they are more powerful, but they don't handle like a Porsche.

Audi has fewer problems with electronics than any other company.
Germans make nice cars.
If I can be cruel; I'm not a big fan of the Audi R8, actually.
There's an old joke that you know you're in heaven if the cooks are Italian and the engineering is German. If it's the other way around you're in hell.

One of the key problems is that the Germans know what they do because everywhere they go there's a 'made in Germany' label on it - they can feel proud of Volkswagens and Audis and Mercedes.
I drive a Mercedes SLS, which is fun.
Porsches are a great drive.
We Germans should know that we're good at constructing cars, and we have a lot of good qualities. But we're not the funniest.
One of my assistants found this old German machine. It was originally used to make underwear. Like Chanel, who started with underwear fabric - jerseys - we used the machine that made underwear to make something else.
I've got a 1990 Porsche 911. It's just a Carrera, a very simple, straightforward little thing that goes like stink. I love it.
A woman that is like a German clock, Still a-repairing, ever out of frame, And never going aright, being a watch, But being watched that it may still go right!
In 1947, Porsche began work on its 356. In many ways, it was like the original iPhone. It wasn't perfect. It was underpowered. But it was streamlined and aerodynamic.
