 Porsche: Excellence Was Expected - Excerpt - Vol. 1 Ch. 1
Like Rabe, Franz Xavier Reimspiess (born in 1901) was known to Ferdinand Porsche from his days at Austro-Daimler before World War I. His contribution to the VW and thus, indirectly, to the Porsche car was the fundamental conception of the air-cooled four-cylinder opposed engine used in the Type 60.
Intense and positive in all his views, even to the extent of defying his boss's instructions (something few at Porsche dreamed of doing), Komenda was at heart a kind and deeply thoughtful man. He, Mickl, Reimspiess and Rabe remained stalwarts of the Porsche organization through the early 1960s.
Knit tightly into a team by their mutual respect, common nationality and veneration of Porsche, these were the men who, in the late 1930s, were eager to enrich the motoring world with variations on the basic Volkswagen theme.
