I've got a family of 4 and it sure would be nice to take them all when the need to drive a P-car comes up. I figgered a 912 would be a (reasonably) economical way to go. I could put in a hot /4 and away we go.

I see theres about 7 or 8 of em for sale in the recycler pretty cheap. I know, you get what you pay for.
