I had a new 911 around 2006. It was a blast however the boxsters were a lot more fun to drive. The 914 is the most fun of all. The 911 was my daily driver. Much more room than a boxster. The 911 allure is simply its history and image.

Much more room than a boxster. The 911 allure is simply its history and image. some days my 914 is more fun than the boxster.i can throw it around curves and have a direct feel to the road.the boxster is much faster and definitely good on curves,but lacks the lightness and road feel of 914.i still try to imagine my 914 with more power. i suppose if i had a 911 sorted like magnus walkers i might crave it.hes such a good promoter |
