Cracks me up when people call 2.5 hours a long trip. Is your car really that anemic? Are 914s really that lame and fragile?
NO! Mine is not because I know its state of tune and have some basic tools and parts on hand. If you are not confident that you could drive your 914 on a several-hour drive, then do everything you need to do to have that confidence. Then enjoy it! The 914 is a pleasure to drive. It is not a pleasure to fear. Just another $.02. |
