I have been wondering a lot lately if there is an equivalent of a light weight sports car like a 914 made for today’s drivers. The 914 seems to have been focused on driving, rather than comfort: my 61 Falcon was no less comfortable or optioned. I know they have to pass safety and emissions. A toybaru?

I don't know..... Maybe on paper they're similar in design but having owned a Cayman for 4 years, I never thought it was anything like a 914. Although the Cayman may be a better daily driver, the 914 is much more fun.
