1972 914 2.0?

[Craig T]

I'm reading conflicting reports...

Did Porsche offer the 2.0 4-cylinder in 1972? Some research shows 73 as the first 2.0 4-cylinder.

It was a 1973 model-year car. Many of them were built in calendar year 1972, but they all have 47329... VINs. Any source you see that says 72 2.0 four-cylinder (like our list here on this site!) has been confused by the build-year versus model-year thing.

Note that there were a very few 2.0 liter 914-6 cars built for the 72 model year. None were officially imported to the US, but some have made it over here in the intervening years.

Thank you Dave. I contacted the seller. It was indeed a typo.
