Coachbuilders for Porsche +/- on Value or Perception?
Just curious if there is, or ever has been, any negative (or positive) sentiment toward bodies made for Porsche by Karmann, Reutter, Drauz (sp?), etc. Have there been any defects or differences of note that alter their value one way or the other?
In modern manufacturing, that sort of thing could be construed as outsourcing, farming-out, contracting, whatever... but generally not regarded as a positive, often even percieved as being less than the "real thing". Was that the case back then or no?
