Am I correct that it's a prototype for a car using a 914-6 chassis and engine but not a prototype for Porsche?

Am I correct that it's a prototype for a car using a 914-6 chassis and engine but not a prototype for Porsche? from the site: The car bears Porsche serial number 1300005, showing that this is a pre-series car. The idea was to create a GT coupe version of the 914 with the 911 Flat 6 engine. A more refined, luxury version of the 914. The car was well received by the press and people were ready to place orders for it. Heuliez started discussions with Porsche to start production. However, they were working with Karmann and would'nt want any conflict with their coach builder. Project got cancelled as Heuliez would'nt risk to go alone on that project. |
