An amazing coincidence happened in the 914 LE world today. We reached twin milestones on the 914 Can Am Registry.
150 Bumblebees listed
100 Creamsicles listed
Creamsicles are clearly more rare, but I like them both.
Thats 25% of these cars that were made, in aggregate. If 25% of all 914s made were still with us, how many would that be? About 29,000?
Happy Dayz...
In tribute here are photos from our Bay Area LE Owners first meet recently. We know of another that is a Creamsicle original owner we will invite next time.

Very cool Jeff! Maybe I need one after all. Almost got that rusty one out of Phoenix last year.
There are several LE cars listed for sale at the bottom of the Registry webpage in every price range, and I know of a couple more available not on the list yet.
Very nice, hope to see a few of the LEs at the WCR, hope to drive mine down to Oregon!

It is cool the creamsicle owner wore a star trek uniform to the gathering.
FYI Creamsicle in mid-resto for sale: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170957033922&viewitem=&sspagename=ADME%3AB%3ASS%3AUS%3A1123
Jeff, are there ever any LE events in Florida?
Also am curious, what is the PROPER labeling name for these cars per Porsche? Such as if they would be factory badged on the back, what is the proper name/order of model description?
914 LE
914 Can Am
914 LE Can Am
914 Can Am LE
etc.
Hi Tom,
There will be a 914 LE event in Florida if you put it together! There are 8 LE cars in FL, Steve Gaglione has an excellent Creamsicle in Tampa...I know there are others. In that region you might even draw from neighboring states to put together a core group. I can give you the contact info of the others if you email me. You gotta tell me your contact info for the Registry as well....
You should review the 914 Can Am website for the details on what to call them. They have the Can Am Equipment package so 914 Can Am is correct. In the USA they were marketed as the 914 Limited Edition so that is also correct. For the Germany and Japan markets they had other names.
For a USA market car, the most appropriate is 914 Limited Edition.
Get back to me when the car arrives and we'll swap info.
Out here on the left coast, someone (any 914 owner) just gets the wheels turning and decides to host an event. It can be very little work, like posting an invite here on the site with a date/time/place for a 9:14 breakfast, to a lot of work like organizing a major event for a hundred 914s with hotel/food arrangements. The rule is....If you organize it, you decide the rules, there is no sanctioning body on this club site. Go for it!
914 PARTY AT MY HOUSE! WOO-WHOO! LOL
What was the new Bumblebee added? Was there a new Creamsicle also? I thought there were 100 accounted for already.
