I think your win underscores the fact that the 914 is finally getting some well deserved attention and recognition.

Hey My 914, I can tell you that at the car shows A LOT of people stop to talk about the car, the one they used to own or the one they wanted to own. And I’ve noticed a new trend. People ask if they can take their girlfriend’s or their kid’s picture in it at the wheel! I’m happy to oblige.... grouphug.gif

Hi Ed,
It's funny, but even at the local MoTown car shows, my 4N car gets as much or more attention than all the more "common" American Iron! driving.gif

Uh-Ohhh!!!! Curtis has the CW Bug bad now! laugh.gif

A little of this first.gif .... and he's off smash.gif FERG.gif

The couple behind us with a 68 Airstream at the huge Pismo Vintage Trailer/RV Rally this past weekend have a 75 1.8 in Laguna Blue/Black which they've had since `79, so we always talk 914 every year since we met them our first year with our 1960 Avion T20 trailer in 2012.

For some reason this rally I had a dozen-plus people comment on my 914 sweatshirt - most have or had one - whereas every prior year when I've worn the same sweatshirt made by Johannes on here - nary a comment, except from that couple with 75!

I guess 914s are getting a higher profile.

Congratz Curtis smilie_pokal.gif - & Thanx again for the 4th offer!

Cheers! beerchug.gif
