I have always had sports cars. My first car was a rolled over Austin Healey 3000. Then I had a
(new) Porsche 914 for many years. After a short, stupid break, I had a couple of RX-7's. Now I am older (too old!), but my memories of the 914 make me want to buy another one. Prices are not very high, butI am not sure I have the skills (welding mostly), strength, or patience any more to keep one running. It seems like my choices are that or a Miata. So, my question is, how does a 914 compared to a Miata, drivingwise? Are they comparable, or very different? I loved the Porsche, but couldn't keep it running, especially living in apartments. I want to enjoy that feeling again |

The Miata is a great little car. THE only thing wrong wth them is ....there are too many of them. Complete strangers won't walk up and say "Nice Miata, I haven't seen one that nice for 20 years. I remember when I was a kid.....yada,yada" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
