We often complain that our cars don't get their due. If you haven't already, pick up a copy of April's Excellence Magazine. It's got heavy 914 content:

Commentary - about making the 914 more of a daily driver.

10 best "Driver's Cars" - includes laudatory comments from David Coleman (obviously a 914 fan), Bruce Anderson, Pete Stout and Jerry Seinfeld.

(Of course, there were a handful of idiotic, factory lackeys who couldn't see past their whine and cheese 911 attitude, and even two who placed the PepperVagen in the top ten. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif) )

I'll let you read the article to learn where the 914 placed in the rankings, and above which models.

All in all, a great read. Pick up a copy.

Hump????
I've been with this forum and others for a short while and I realize people cylce interest/time requirments. Buuuuttttttt, I can't believe that the best source of assessing the quality and capability of the 914 is outside these fourms. Seems a continuation of the, "Self Importance", of our media. Sorry, I put much more value, as should the advertising companies, in assessment from people like Brad, Andy, Seanery, Geoff, DD and others. And, no, that IS peanut butter on my nose. Sorry for the rant.

Why Idolize the 914 now? Why are people thanking me for my time in Southeast Asia now when they peed on my shoes in the 70's. It provides a benifit. Like someone said, the Boxter hasn't done well. So not well, that boxters will now look like a 911. For God's sake, Porsche came out with an SUV!! Could Porsche be thinking of coming out with a middle class population Porsche? Could the concept car of Motor Trend be a omen? Conspiricy theory? I'm not sure but, yes, Castro was on the Grassy Knowl in 63 and GW was flying the plane into the WTC.
