This better fits your description of 'Lowered to the ground...'
That's it! I pray it has fuzzy dice hanging from the mirror. It's got the "twice pipes". SoCal!
What a car. What a cultural and social statement. And proof of good smooth roads.

Believe it or not, this is a Morgan. The Plus Four Plus was an attempt to modernise with a streamlined GRP body but despite good handling and a decent turn of speed it didn't sell (probably irked the purists) and only 26 were built. I have to say that I think it's incredibly pretty.

It is all you say, no doubt. But it is a "funny looking Morgan" and the market is for the "old" ones, the bespoke anachronisms. The joke about the suspension is that you not only can feel a dime when you drive over it, you can tell if it was heads or tails. Works with "tanners" too. ;o)

Looks more like a 944 to me, but I could be wrong.

I'm not sure enough to put money on it. You're probably right.
If I see the car again I'll check more closely.
All the best,
