    Not that odd given the filler door, but still odd for the fact it's LWB. And an 'S', no less. 3 liter motor, too. Wacky.

    I would call it a R-gruppe hot rod with R tailights and front turn signals.

    Actually, the '72 is closest to the real 911R in terms of where you fill the car with oil...
