I just feel "confused" when I look at that.

1974 911 is not something that comes to mind.

where are you guys coming up with this stuff, it's a 911 slant nose, 959, speedster.

Of course, when I first looked at the pics I was trying to figure out if it was based on a 911 or a 914 or something else. Hopefully, it's much better in person.

Looks like they took a 911 speedster rear and mated it to a 914 front and then added a 951 spoiler to the front and a Supra wing to the rear. Gotta love that three inch gap between the front spoiler and the front trunk. Must add to the cooling in the cab......

I think it's 914-based

The side profile pretty much gives it away... look at the distance from the back of the door to the wheel well. Plus, it the air vent on the FG "tonneau" is located more for a mid-engine setup than a rear engine.

May be right Jake, they may have just cut the roll bar out, and added the body kit and five lug rotors. Looks like it was put together okay except for the front spoiler/hood area... If it is a 914 then someone spent alot of money on it.... hell it may even have a flat six it in.... Just such a conglomerate of styling ques it is hard to tell what the overall impression was supposed to be.... Neo Modern rice burner 944S turbo 911 with 959 complex speedster...... Think my $9500. would be better spent on a nice SC.........
