Almost everything about that car is different than stock. It has a 908 engine and trans. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Almost everything about that car is different than stock.

Fun fact, all the prototypes i have seen up close had parts that had the overall shape of 914 production parts but they are all different.
None of the body panels would actually fit a production 914. And all the panels were hand-welded.

The panels are custom, the trim is custom, the windows are custom, the rubber is custom, the interior is custom, everything is custom. And then they slapped on a few VW/911/356 parts on them for good measure.

And the closer you look the more you realize that nothing is exactly the same as on a production 914.
