A guy from a german forum asked if anybody knows the car to this drivetrain. Obviously it has to be a mid-engine car and it seems to be something like a race car.
Any ideas??

Isn't that an Automatic?

Interesting ballhousing. It has a spot for shifter input, but looks like it could have a torque converter. And it has 2-stroke style mufflers, weird. It also has a strange TB setup and looks like a TIV overall.

I'm curious now too.

I'm thinking 914 Sportomatic (auto-stick).

Didn't Porsche work on a midengined design for Volkswagen that was eventually scrapped? I think that the transmission certainly does look like a Sportomatic type of transmission.

Great find, I'm hoping that someone has the definative answer!

+1

I assume it's a prototype drawing, hence the ultra-sporty (albeit inefficient) exhaust.

The engine tin is not 914, but it looks like it would fit...

Its a sportomatic for a 914.

no idea

914/4 sportomatic.
Can't figure out the gearshift though. Must be a mockup of sorts since you couldn't shift it.

here's a pic of the car
check out that there are badges from Mercedes, Porsche and ... VW (??) on the side

did you ever see this thing before ????

what the hell ist this

Looks kinda neat. Slap a a turbo Subie motor in is and it would make a hell of a street cruiser.

Cool, It's got wide ATS wheels

I wonder how effective that dinky windscreen is at keeping bugs out of teeth, though. A person shouldn't have to wear a full face helmet for cruising the street.

However, that header/exhaust will cost you valuable HP, T4's like a 4-2-1 header system ...

Wearing a helmet lets people know you are serious. Who says you can't wear a helmet when driving a car anyways. Before its over the safety nazis will have us all wearing helmets anyways.
