I'm one of those Porsche purists, really particular about all the little details. I drive the crap out of my car, but I still make sure it has the correct nuts and bolt, so the concours judges don't give me any lip. I notice a lot of radically modified 914s here, just wanted to get a sense of how everybody feels.

I have a weird standard... maybe even a double standard. For myself, I really like sleepers, that is cars that look pretty much stock, but pack a punch. That whole concept of looking stock-ish has ruled a lot of my own decisions on my 914. Also, it would seem that PCA is enforcing the "must be Porsche engined" rule more and more so that will affect some people's decisions.
Truth be known though my geek side really likes all the conversion perversions. 928 motor, cool. Subaru flat 4 or 6, very cool. Rotary, SBC, VR6, all cool. The fact that people enjoy these cars enough to engineer ways to make all of these conversions work simply shows what great little cars our 914s are and that it has a lot of untapped possibility. |
