So after the Phoenix resurfaced my wife felt it was time for us to have another P car. So with her blessing, we welcomed this to our home yesterday. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

My first Porsche was a very ratty 72T targa. i had the car for two years until I was laid off and couldn't afford owning it. But the experience of top off driving, especially on warm summer nights always stuck with me. When a 914 came along at the right price I knew I could recapture the magic.

You are just doing the same thing but a bit backwards (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) one thing about 911s, besides being very demanding when driven into a corner fast, is that they are so damn comfortable on long hauls. Now I have an SC coupe, but on sunny days, the 914 is the go to car. Or as my wife calls the teener, 'The fun car'.

Congrats on your purchase, you won't regret it....unless you lift!
