, 911 chassis, 944 suspension, all disc brakes, AC, heat, heated seats, p windows, Boxster seats, VW GTI tranny. Only 6000 miles.
It's a special car for sure... but I think the listing dealer may be a bit confused.
I don't see how a car can have a "911 chassis" and a "944 suspension" at the same time (or what that even means), or how it can have a GTI transmission.
Intermeccanicas are all built on box-steel frames, so there is no "chassis" seperate from the "suspension". It's impossible to tell what it has for running gear and brakes, but if it came from Henry like this, it has either a 914 or 911 suspension (and brakes). It's possible that it has 944 trailing arms in the back, but that's not necessarily any great shakes.
Back to the transmission-- the GTI is a front drive car with the engine and transmission mounted east and west instead of north and south. I went to the dealer website, and looked at pictures-- there's an EMPI trigger shifter between the seats, so my bet is it's a VW 4-speed.
The dealer description seems like most other used car ads-- long on pretty pictures and short on any meaningful information.
