914 stories Options

[Ace Le Count]

Does anyone have some crazy 914 stories that they'd like to share? Maybe your son/daughter was born in one? Maybe you drag raced someone that was getting cocky because they thought their riced out civic was faster? Maybe you used a 914 as a getaway car after you robbed a bank? How has your 914 saved the day?

The most recent one happened in October. I had to drive my car out to my friends shop to fit GT flares, but I'd already sold my 16x7 fuchs to buy wider wheels and they wouldn't fit under the narrow fenders.

So I figure, screw it, I'll chop the arches, fit the wider wheels, drive out really early, and cross my fingers I don't cross paths with a stickler cop.

As I get on the 60 heading out of LA this kid in a slammed Infiniti G35 comes racing up behind me and, well, yeah, I may have been forced to floor it and leave him in my dust, which for some odd reason he sees as a challenge and floors it after me...

My exhaust is pretty loud, and he had a fart can, so it's like a really angry wasp screaming after a throaty chainsaw, at which point we pass a cop who'd pulled someone over. Only I guess he'd just finished, because about 2 mins later I see him appear in my rearview.

I must have seen him before the G35 because I let off first, the cop pulls alongside me and stares at my Mad Max style 914, and then promptly pulls over the kid in the slammed G35.
