I agree with Kim. I, more or less, like the car. It's overpriced, but it is still a nice car. But the problem appears to be the lame and misleading advertising. The seller says it is a GT clone and in other places the seller says the car is a 916 clone. The car, in fact, does not "clone" either the 916 nor the early 1970s 914-6 GTs.

The 916 was a luxury car with leather all around, AC, and a 2.4 liter engine (if I remember right, could be a 2.7). But this car does not have leather all around, not on all parts of the seats, not on the dash and I did not see AC. Also the engine is from another era.

The GT was a stripped down race car with no amenities and black felt where a lot of the interior trim used to be. But this car has all sorts of fancy amenities, weird gauge faces, center console, arm rest, and no black felt.

So it's neither a very good GT nor a very good 916 clone.

I still like the car anyway. It looks like it was almost done right. I don't know how you're supposed to change the coil to dizzy wire, however.
