So when these cars came out what was there so called segment
I know it's said that it's the 912 replacement And Karmin ghia replacement But was this thing really made as just a fill in car . I personally use it as many things , it fill many roles well not something we usually associated with a small 2 seater It may be the 2nd best handling car around No.1 , 944 But how was it marketed and presented to the motoring public when it came out .Obviously it was not marketed as buy this car and it will still be cool 35 years later. And was it designed to handle really well (for a car with normal tires ) Or was that just a by product of superior german manufacturing and execution. In all honesty the 912 and karmen ghia are Pretty big shoes to filll And a teener does it well But would I be correct to assume a 914 (not wild conversion) with the same power As a 911 would be the faster or quicker car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sunglasses.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) |

My "Troll" comment was directed at the OP........... IMO, the tone and responses are.
I see LOTS of discussion, differing opinions on 914 world, but little of what feels trollish. This guy just does. |
