How are us 914 owners viewed by the 911 owners? Are we looked down upon as glorified VW owners or accepted as Porsche owners? In other words, you meet a car guy and he owns a 911 and you mention you own a Porsche also. When he asks you what model, and you say a 914, is he going to look down his nose at you or accept you as an equal?

I would actually say that there is a giant difference just between the "garage" 914 owners and the "originality and history" owners. Seems that the originality and history owners are much more concerned with preserving the 914 marque and have much more intelligence, class, and character, than the guys in the garage. On the other hand there is a totally different crowd on the Ford GT Forum AMAZINGLY different. Bottom line the type of car one owns and how they treat it more often than not helps define ones character |
