[TR] "Automotive News" column re BMW-Triumph

[pethier at comcast.net]

The TR6 was partially designed in Germany.

I don't think wheelbase change is needed.  Take a BMW roadster platform, put in one of those BMW twin-cam straight sixes mounted well back, finish off with a body that resembles a TR6 and you have an instant winner.  Keep the engine well back for good mass distribution.
