As I'm told, this Matchbox Porsche 914 on the picture is especially for the Canadien market.
I pointed out the "specialities" to make it easy to identify:

Would anybody of our Canadien members be so kind to get me one (ore more - up to four would be fine) ??
Of course I would pay for the expences !!

I'd be very happy to add this one to my collection ...

Just send me PM or Mail

Huh.. my US version doesn't say LILA, the stripe on the side is gray, and it says 'Heritage Classics' over 'Porsche 914'. The physical car looks the same.

I found 2 of these at my local supermarket. 2 different shades of green. They were a whopping 1.29 each. They don't say "Lila" on them but they do say Porsche 914, and 16/100. Maybe these are not what Wolfgang is looking for!!!

Sorry, too funny ... "Lila" is the German word for purple.

I think Gustl was trying to point out the color of the stripe and not some additional lettering.

I think he is saying Lila is the color, the US version is grey and says Heritage classic on them, the cars are the same, just the package is slightly different. I bought my Canadian cars in Vancouver, BC when I was there in February at the Surrey Walmart, they were very cheap like 1.50 or so...I hope you can get them Gustl

You Canadians really ought to get out more. Lots of really good beer in Europe.
