    718 RS Spyder - Where are they?

    Because I've seen a post like this in another forum (about the 904) I'd like to make a list of all the 718 racing cars built, and their whereabouts – with a picture (when possible). How many are still out there?
    Please feel free to join me and let's find out!


    Here's what I've seen, so far:

    Thanks for the tip Chuck!
    It just doesn't seem to be the same car... because:
    - the roll bar color is different;
    - the shape and position of the mirrors is different;
    - not to mention the stickers...

    I took both pictures on the same weekend, at Daytona.
