I am new to your board. I currently do not own a 914 but have an opportunity to acquire one. I have been doing as much reading as I can about them. I own other classic cars and am aware of the issues about rust and maintenance. I have never driven a 914 so I would like to know what other owners enjoy most about their cars. I would be using the car for Solo II and for driving around town or weekend trips. I realize these cars don't possess gobs of power but when it comes to Solo, a good handling car is better than power monger anyway.
Thanks in advance for your advise. |

Because someday you may find yourself north of SF on Hwy 1 with no traffic in front of you.
