Although I really don't want to spoil our good humor here, but in my second sight at pictures I noticed the lack of Spyder badges and round Turbo-Charged emblem at the rear hood instead of flags. I'm sorry. Could it be OK for any matter, european version maybe?

Spyder here means it has an optional turbocharged engine. Series 900 had coupes and convertibles of this kind. Probably, this is the first turbocharged mass-produced vehicle in the world, way before Porsche 930. Did you feel lucky that day?

Sometimes I can swear that you guys are surfing the same paths of internet as I do, simultaneously. The day before I was watching Twin Cam on YouTube about 930 Turbo, and decided to look through these Corvairs and first turbo Olds, as they have been mentioned there, and today you reveal this. Coincidence?
