If you ever had a 914, please have your say.

There is a 914 basher in Amazon.com Customer discussion Click: Amazon ~ Discussions: Once a year oil change: when is the best?

This used car salesman who has probably never driven a middie, has been unjustly badmouthing the 914. Can everybody please chime in. He says 914s "were cheap and showed that Porsche engines are sludge monsters." It is unfair to young readers just coming in, to hear this rubbish without your opinion.

Please go in there and straighten this guy out about Porsche!

I love the 914!! Part of the reason is the experience of feeling the road conditions feed back thru the steering wheel and the seat of my pants, and hearing the engine working. Of course there are more expensive sports cars with more luxurious interiors that deaden that experience, but why would one want that?
Well, the guy is welcome to his opinion, I sure don't agree with him and would look at any "advise" he had to give with a tilted head. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

I read a bunch of his missives. He likes big, loud, high-horsepower cars that treat him like a lil baby. All that translates into a wimp with a little dick that probably couldn't figure out the shift pattern on a 914.
