There were only 20 or so factory cars with the M471 package produced. Dave would know the numbers better than i would. But besides those that were delivered from the factory, the M471 was a dealer option. So the dealers could install the flares and whatever else you wanted to put on the 914-6. The package was the factories way of trying to get the car homolginized for a specific SCCA racing class inwhich the 914-6gt's would have dominated. But SCCA didn't bite and the 914-6 was but into a higher class than it could compete with.... Kind of like the same rules the PCA and POC have now.
