I could be wrong, and I'm sure James will correct me if so, but the chassis number should tell us the answer .. It is a WPOZZZ number where the ZZZ means "rest of world" production ... the cars for the US have their own code in place of ZZZ. This definitely applies to the older 80's and 90's cars, I'm just not 100% sure if it applies to the later cars ... ? James P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a Fabspeed 'competition intake' there is a bit of contention over it because it basically sucks hot air in, the EVOMS intake is better.

symsy Posted 22June, 2018 Report Share Posted 22June, 2018 So basically a track car .. would you just buy a cup , you probably cant register with the full cage.. and the interior, whats up with porsche seats!!!!! I wonder actually is it plated or just a very dirty import Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be my guess ... The ROW cars are for every other country except the US .... they are the only ones to have a seperate code. It could have been for anywhere in Europe, or as you suggested, the Japanese market ... James P and Troubleshooter 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
