To me the German look is not the look but the ethos of performance. improve and refine the performance of the base car with out radically changing the base vehicle.
I used to think what would Porsche have done when doing any mods but now my preference is pure performance to i look further afield but i still try and hold true to the vw design be that a torsion bar or strut front end. both set ups can be made to work very well, far better than most of us can use fully on the road or track.
The next car i'm building is a 67 uk spec bug and the idea is a period car thats like a 356 in performance and handerling, to me thats a old school german look.
what ever it is it should be fun, after all why build a car if its not going to be used and enjoyed?
