The Porsche 916 is one of the most intriguing and elusive cars the company ever produced — a project so promising it was cancelled precisely because it was too good. Developed in the early 1970s as a high-performance evolution of the mid-engined 914/6, the 916 received the 2.4-litre flat-six engine from the 911S, wider bodywork with flared arches, a fixed steel roof in place of the 914’s removable targa panel, and a significantly sharper driving character. Ferry Porsche and the development team were reportedly delighted with it — but Ferdinand Piëch intervened, concerned that the 916 would cannibalise sales of the flagship 911. The project was terminated after only a handful of prototypes were completed.
Chassis 17 is among the last of these survivors — a rare and historically significant example of a Porsche that never was. In Blue, it is a striking reminder of the road not taken.
Schuco’s 1:18 resin model of Chassis 17 is officially licensed by Porsche and presented with a display case and base — an exceptional piece for serious collectors of Porsche history.

Understanding Scale
The scale of a model is its size as a proportion to the real-life item. For instance, a 1:18 scale model means that every 1 unit of measurement on the model equals 18 units on the real item. If you divide the real item's size by 18, you'd get the size of the 1:18 model. Please note that models can vary slightly in size, as not all real-life items, like cars or planes, have the same dimensions.
