84 911 cabriolet here.
Quicker, draws more racers to hassle you. More luxury, smoother ride. Faster Oversteer is just a problem if you don't remember it's coming...911 has enough power to adjust if it starts to happen. I cruise in mine, so it does not happen anymore....it did happen a lot the first week when I went from a 914 to a 911 The 914 handles better, no argument The 911 has better build quality, but at the end of the day they are both setup the same with the same front suspension and read trailing arms. All around, both a nice cars depending upon your mood. I plan to keep my 911 mostly stock and keep is as my cruiser. The 914 has gone through two phases.....stock, then racer, then stock.... With the 911 in my stable, I can take the 914 much farther down the road into a racer and not worry about street driving it as much. |
