    my car was originally delivered in Italy and over the years (thanks to similar threads like this - see below) I have found the following differs as part of C07 (Country code Italy delivery):

    - front light housing "A" (small orange and large white area) [option 34];
    - no hazard switch [option 37];
    - headlamp flasher combined with driving light (position 1 = position 2) [447];
    - different horn;
    - No seatbelts;
    - No rearview external mirror [option 486].

    There's other oddities, for example: my steering wheel is rubber with fake stitching and the larger square rearview exterior (flag) mirror, but I have the standard fueltank (standard for 'T' was 62L; 'E'&'S' should have 85) and the car came with head-rests.
    Mine also came with Pirelli tires and 6x15" fuchses, but those were separately listed on the cardex/CoA.

    For years I've been trying to find out what exactly C07 entails, but to no avail. What complicates matters is that in order to compete in a tough market, Porsche was offering the cars in Italy as cheap as possible; hence the delivery without mirrors & seatbelts. When mirrors did get mandatory later in the seventies, i guess (but that's only a guess) is that people went back to the dealer and got the later my74 flag mirrors fitted because they had those in store.

    Enjoy further reading:
