I have been a Porsche fan all of my life and I have wanted a 914 since I was 14 or so. Last year a couple of weeks before my 32 birthday I stumble upon a 914 that seemed to be in good shape and wasn’t on the moon or in California. It was in Greenville SC about 2 hours from my childhood home and about 2 weeks before thanksgiving. I had been perusing the Porsche books and magazines (and later on websites) for the better part of 2 decades and it looked like my excuses where up. I went to see the car for the first time on 11/19/10 and even though it took a couple of days of bargaining and 2 more trips to the dealer, I’m pretty sure the deal was done today a year ago when I first laid eyes on the car. I am now almost a full year into the mental illness that is 914 ownership and 914World has been a priceless support group. THANK YOU ALL!

That is one nice looking teener! Got to get some Mahle's or Fuch's to make it look even better!
Tell your significant other that Christmas is coming! Happy Thanksgiving! Terry |

I would love to have some Mahles for it or maybe some cookie cutters, but Its hard to beat the good old domes and having the cash in my back pocket that it would take to convert makes the ride a little nicer too. Happy Thanksgiving to you as well. I'll actually be heading up your way (sort of). Spending some time in Atlanta and then up to my parents house just east of Helen GA. I wish I was taking the teener. There are some great roads up there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) The day I bought the car my uncle was driving it back from Greenville SC on 441 and the fuel pump died around Clarksville. As if sitting on the side of 441 with my brand new (to me) 914 wasn't nerve racking enough, when the tow truck got there the driver said "now I've never hauled one of these". He hooked it up and started pulling the car onto the flat bed and just when the back tire made it onto the bed the chain came loose and the car started rolling backward off the truck and down 441. No harm done but man I was ready for a drink by the time we got the car to a the local shop. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) |
