Hi Les,
The name Mike Mattan I have heard of before. I have a couple of photos of a car that looked very similar to a Zakspeed car, it was sponsored by Channel 9. I am sure this car was a copy as it has some Gp 2 and Gp 5 features. I will try to locate these photos and post then.
Cheers,
Gary

Hi Gary, I'm a massive fan of this car... absolutely mind blowingly track stoppingly awesome. Thanks for bringing it out to NZFMR, and thanks also for taking the time to have a quick chat about the car (even though you probably had about 1 million people do this!).
Anyway, a brief photojournal of this car from me, if I may:

Hi Richy,
Thanks for the photos, Fantastic!!
It was a pleasure to bring it North, the NZFMR was great.

Thanks again.

What happened to the 2nd G2 Zakspeed that came to Malaysia in late 1978 after Macau?

Hi All,
There was a second car and possibly a third, but not Zakspeeds. Copies build in Asia?? 82/83 period.
Mike Mettan was the driver of one at some point, could have had a Rotary fitted!!!
Sorry don't know more than that.
Cheers,
Gary.
