Hello all: I'm new to the 914 world and am hoping to add a 2.0 to our garage soon. I have seen references to a VIN page in the forums but can't find it on the site.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

and here is the other one from the 75 brochure.

UK, France, Germany all have this shot.

and same page from USA brochure (otherwise very similar).

Attached Image

can't tell if its the same car and same photo but simply airbrushed to make the 1.8 differently portrayed for USA market or they actually rolled a US spec car into exactly the correct position. if they did roll another car in for the shot they were bloody good, very precise. (they add the warts in on both cars too, or vice versa, used american spec cars and airbrushed warts and vinyl targa out as well as changed the white black interior to white - who knows. but i don;t think its two different stagings of the same shot with different cars).

anyway they sure are distinguishing the 1.8s differently in the sales material.
dunno if it proves anything but it matches what i built up in the 1.8 L jet files. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
