Am i the only one who noticed this phenomena? I always see people on forums bashing the 914 with insults like: "it's a slow crappy car" or "it's hideous" or even "my Honda Civic is faster than a 914". Comments like those make me want to bash some skulls (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) or at least show up the Civic dude in a race haha. i think that it's just plain ignorance on their part, but it still aggravates me..

Last week I went to the Pismo Beach 24th annual car show, well..me and 85, 000 others over the three days. There were 615 cars entered and many, many more like me just there with our cars enjoying. It wasn't uncommon for the owners to have dropped 100k restoring them.
Of all the cars parked or roaming, there were piles of camaros, vettes, roadsters etc but there was ONLY 1 Porsche 914...that would be me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) These cars were beautiful, don't get me wrong, but how many GTO's can you see before you start to walk right past them...no matter how awesome they are. My little 914, nice, but no way a show car attracted more attention than I would have ever believed. There is something to be said about driving a classic that is unique!
