I realized today I have had my car for almost 10 years. The content here and the group of members have made it possible for me to actually work on and enjoy this quirky German car.
THANK YOU ALL! I don't want to drum up any negativity regarding the old "club" or anything. I do remember being a member during a "split up". So what I am really getting at here is......When did the world site go online and become what it is today? I am guessing from my lousy memory around the end of 2006? Just trying to gauge how old we are...thx |

Most of the people who joined initially came from rennlist (formerly porschelist). As I recall, frustration with that site not being "vendor neutral" was the biggest reason for the creation of 914club.
There are still a few folks on here that I remember from the email listserve before that. "Porschefans", maybe?? edit P.S. Embarrassed to admit I was on 914club from almost the first day but didn't create an account until Jun of 03 because I didn't have anything to post. Yes, I'm the uber-lurker. |

There are still a few folks on here that I remember from the email listserve before that. "Porschefans", maybe?? Oh yes - I may still have a bunch of digests from the 924-944 P-fans list around here somewhere, dating to late 1997 and 1998. (And finding those just cost me an hour before I got back on task...) Anyway this thread prompted me to check around, and it looks like I actually was subscribed to Porschelist/Rennlist for about seven months. Wasn't enamored of the Lyris list manager, and I thought the forum software was vile so I avoided it all. I eventually ran into DDunkle and probably blurted out something undiplomatic, as was my custom at the time... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Anyway, there are some more dates recorded on this page, but the archive of Porschephiles and P-fans has been offline a few years. I've written to Charlie to ask about getting a copy, or access. --S. |
