So I saw one of the best looking and built up 356's today.....and I went to the last Rennsport and watched 911's and 914's race each other....so my question is this....which model handles the best? I have been in a 356 that had 250 hp and all my friends have 914's with at least that....911's have even more. The 356 today looked so good that I said to myself..."Wow...what could possibly out handle that car?". Just a fun question for a Saturday night....
All the best, gg |

Porsche's choice, amongst other auto makers have used the mid engine configuration in their most successful race cars. If you put the same hp, into a similarly set up. 911, 914 and a 356, my opinion is the 914 would come out on top.
