Now I'm that guy... I'm not selling the 914s, but my 2nd little one (William, now 8 months old) is going to be ready to face forward in the car seat at some point (within a year), and he'll likely be joining Lily (now 3) and I on trips to Cars & Coffee and runs up Palomar/etc. And then Mom is more likely to come too. Super Truck™ (CrewMax Tundra) is a great truck and amazingly convenient, but not so much *fun*. Some ideas I've had... BMW 2002 VW Golf/GTI (MK 1 or 2) BMW 3.0cs MB 6.9 356 (back seats are probably too small) Any suggestions? I'm open to anything at the moment. Maybe even a big old American car... ? -Steve |

Dont forget about the Alfa GTV. I like that one a pinch more than the 2002. I had a Kombi bus. It was fun but long drives beat up my kidneys. It was lowered with a bus boys select a drop. A notch back would also be sweet if you want to stay aircooled. How about a crew cab - old or new? You can go to the shows and haul home the goodies.
