I'm one of those Porsche purists, really particular about all the little details. I drive the crap out of my car, but I still make sure it has the correct nuts and bolt, so the concours judges don't give me any lip. I notice a lot of radically modified 914s here, just wanted to get a sense of how everybody feels.
