I've always wanted to throw a poll out there, so here goes.

As some of you know, I'm in the process of selling my 3.2 conversion. It is completely unbelievable to me how many potential buyers have passed on the car because it doesn't have heat, and their idea was to drive it in the Winter.

I've owned 3 914s over the years, and admittedly none of them have had heat (4 or 6 cylinder). But then again, I always put them away for the Winter and have treated the car as a toy car for the most part. When the temps dropped, I dressed warm and that was that.

I've scoured the classifieds for other conversions that have been listed over the past year, and I know I'm not the only conversion car without heat.

maybe it's just the time of year.....maybe nobody will ask if it has heat when I relist it in the Summer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
