Took my first longish drive tonight - 20+ miles each way to Sherman Oaks for some side work. Had a blast! Temp stayed right on the on the leading edge of the "P" and I was crusing between 70-85 mph the whole way (doing the "break the rings" in dance).

Found a few things that need addressed though:

-Exhaust leak somewhere (pop-pop on decel)
-I think one of my rear calipers may be hanging up or a bad wheel bearing (squeak-squeak sound)
-Aim the headlights!

Had a blast though!

Congratulations!! I just got mine back on the road and put 140 miles on it this week. It will be 190 when I get home from work. It had been 9 years since I had driven a 914.
