Porsche VG exclusivity to be dissipated?

[Conza]

I might be reaching, but it has some basis in fact.

It's common knowledge that Volkswagen now owns 49.9% of Porsche, and shortly, northern hemisphere Autumn it appears from the below link*, Porsche models will be built in Volkswagen plant, the extra Cayman and Boxters basically.

Now, since we have access to Volkswagen, and all of their products in GT5, surely with a large enough stake in Porsche, the exclusivity deals with other titles are either, no longer relevent, or short lived, or at the very least in need of review.

Do you think this new development has any bearing on the Porsche exclusivity to certain video game developers/publishers? I'm not sure if this would be better placed in the Auto News segment (because of the news from autoblog) or in the GT5 Q&A segment.

This should go in the GT5 section.

But I hope.

Because VW does not own 51% of Porsche, they cannot demand Zuufhaussen to jump into GT5 unfortunately.

I think there's still contracts and a final say that still passes by a committee or public relations department that gets the final say.

If it were as simple as who owns how much of a controlling interest, then Ferrari could have been in GT2 when Fiat made it to the game, and likewise Lamborghini in GT4 by way of Audi.
