Today, back in 1955, James Dean remodeled his car. Not good for the upcoming star and Porsche owner...RIP Jimmy

I don't know about you, but I've had an incident where someone completely pulled out in front of my 914 without seeing it.
I think one needs to drive a Porsche (sports car) defensively, almost with the same mindset as you would drive a motorcycle. |

QUOTE(Larmo63 @ Oct 1 2019, 09:26 PM)  I don't know about you, but I've had an incident where someone completely pulled out in front of my 914 without seeing it. I think one needs to drive a Porsche (sports car) defensively, almost with the same mindset as you would drive a motorcycle. And that is the reason I drive with the fog lights on all the time. Well, mine are 911 driving lights, but same reason. Anything I can do to make my 914 more visible on the road is a good thing. Plus... we always assume no one can see us, but everyone is trying to kill us. In this case, paranoia is a good thing. Bought the LED headlight kit from 914rubber and the LED turn signals, brake lights and backup lights from Spokeworks for Igor last night. They are on both the other two. Even wanting to keep Elwood as factory original as possible, we still did this modification, because we consider this to be a safety thing. |
