Actually, Ron and 249,

You are both near enough in the similarities.

The Murena does look a bit like a late 80's Supra in the nose, it has that "wedge" or chisel shape. Not that fond of it, to me the bonnet should have a bulge[yeah, even if the engine is in the back]. The rear quarters, which I like a lot, is most similar to the Ferrari 308 GTB [as in Magnum]. It's often been described as a mini Urraco also, and there is a resemblance, the car was definitely designed in the wedge era.

The Matra company is a French missile and aerospace company. The Czech connection, are you mixing it up with Tatra, those wonderful big air-cooled rear engined saloons? Nice motors.

Joe
I believe the Matra & the Tatra were featured in the movie "Dirty Dancing". Tsu.
