I am new to the world still and I see these phrases all the time but like in shcool, I hope no question is a dumb quesiton.
"Teener" How did phrase get coined and I assume it means small or tiny like the 914? "Concourse" What type of 914 is this? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) |

Concours is from the French Concours d'Elegance - a competitive event to decide the most elegant car in the vintage/antique car world (the "s" at the end of Concours is silent).
In most local Porsche Club shows it's primarily who has the cleanest (everywhere - nooks & crannies) & best maintained car. When they get to the national level (PCA Parade) then correct originality of the car comes into play. CW is either a original correct & well kept 914 on here, or those seeking that level of originality; and it can be can be interpreted as Concours Weenie, Wanker, Winner, etc.!
