I've heard this a few times but I've also heard that they are identical to the SC many times and I dont have anything but Carreras here to look at unfortunately
There's some pictures around here somewhere. It's not a myth. I've had both side by side for comparison before. If you dig into 74 Carrera lore you'll find that only the early ones got the 73 RS type flare. Partway through production they had changed. I think that's where the idea that they are the same as SC came from.
