A friend of mine has a VERY nice car that I've mentioned in the past.

This weekend when I was at school, he brought his car out to work out some of the cobwebs.

I snapped a few shots:

Quote: In general I agree, but how would you call this car:
1970 914-6, signal orange, 1973 back to Stuttgart, converted to a M471 at the factory and painted blue the 916 front/back, mirrors, cookie cutters and interior were added/changed somewhen later ...

I forgot to reply to this quote.
Once again a unique and special car but still not in the same category as the cars listed on the infamous list from Porsche. As Paul said, "Original or modified at the factory are close but not the same". It's just a little more prestigious having it "modified" years later at Stuttgart than having it "modified" at your local Porsche dealer or your favorite local body shop. Bottom line, "It's a replica".
