I drove to L.A. this last Friday night 325 miles from door to door (San Jose start). It is the longest trip I have taken the 914 on to date although I commute about 85 miles per day!...She ran like a champ!...although my ears were bleeding from the wind noise and loud exhaust note for almost 6 hours of continued driving.The only issue I had was she wouldn't re-start right after I shut her down?...Head temp sensor I suspect but...all in all a great car and a great ride!

I've been wearing these foam ear plugs for the past 40 years. (OK, not this actual pair). With the roof off and windows cranked down, it can get kinda noisy. If you're on a long trip, they really help. The worst noise is the high frequency road noise when a large truck goes by. I mean when I pass a large truck. They work well in noisy airplanes as well.
Cheers, Elliot
