Norev's 1:18 diecast Porsche 914 1.7 in Bahia Red reproduces the mid-engined sports car developed jointly with Volkswagen. The body is a fixed one-piece casting, keeping the 914's distinctive targa top and wedge-shaped lines crisp along every shut line. An interesting, often overlooked addition to a classic Porsche or 1970s sports car display.
TL;DR: Norev's 1:18 Porsche 914 1.7 in Bahia Red is a fixed one-piece diecast body reproducing the mid-engined sports car Porsche developed alongside Volkswagen in the early 1970s. No opening panels, so the targa top and wedge-shaped bodywork carry the whole presentation.
The 914 rarely gets discussed with the same reverence as the 911, but its mid-engined layout made it a genuinely different kind of Porsche, and Norev's Bahia Red diecast represents that overlooked chapter with real conviction at 1:18.
A Sealed Body Fit for a Distinctive Wedge Shape
This model has no working doors or boot. The 914's flat, wedge-profiled bodywork and removable targa panel were unusual for a Porsche of its era, and a one-piece casting suits that clean, angular shape well, keeping the surfacing continuous without a hinge line breaking up the design. The Bahia Red paint carries real depth under direct light, and the targa top's join line and the simple rectangular badging are picked out with fine, confident detail.
Why the 914 Deserves Real Attention
Porsche developed the 914 as a joint project with Volkswagen, using a mid-engined layout that gave the car genuinely different handling characteristics from the rear-engined 911 sold alongside it. That collaborative origin and its distinct engineering approach make the 914 a genuinely interesting subject for a collector who wants more than just another 911 variant on the shelf.
Displaying the 914 Within a Porsche Collection
At 1:18, the 914's flat, low wedge shape contrasts sharply with the rounded 356 or the curvaceous 911 sitting beside it, making it a useful piece for showing the genuine variety within Porsche's own history. Diecast construction gives the sealed body long-term stability and real weight in the hand, a small but reliable sign of proper tooling. Bahia Red suits the 914's understated, slightly unconventional character rather than overselling it.
