I've seen 2 new-to-me 914s in my area this season. All I can do it wonder why they aren't on this BBS and why they haven't been to any PCA events or group drives. I have never met the owners because I don't know where to meet them. FYI I was in my daily driver when I saw them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Happened to me just the other day, saw a 75 mustard color 2.0 sitting in a infamous boulder used car lot. Did a U'ey and started poking around the car. Owner of the lot came out (of course) and I tried to talk 914's with him. It was his driver and he claims to have owned 20 over the years. Funny I've been here for 6 and first one i've seen in his lot, I drive by daily. Any how I told him I have one as well and there is a good denver/boulder group. He told me right off he was not intrested and the price for his was 7500 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) it had a rust coming through both front fenders... anyhow I said thanks but not looking to buy.

Intersting, don't you think? No editing of the results by me what so ever. Look at the results numbers top to bottom.

i always try to track 'em down. i usually have (home-made) 914club stickers with me and put them under the wipers if i can't find the owner ...

honked and waved down 2 guys in a nice yellow 1.7 the other day. we pulled over and chatted for half an hour or so. told him to sign up here and show up to some of the events. hope he did ...

I seem to get seen vs seeing someone else - probably because of how obnoxious the car is. I don't drive my car a ton, so when I do, I find myself being more carefull than usual, and listening for any sound that may be a sign of something bad. I have almost been squashed by SUV's a couple of times so I am probably a tad overy cautious. I find that the ricer kids stay in my blind spot (probably trying to figure out what the car is). They never mess with me on the road. As well, I think Porsches sales figures are off by a ton, as everytime I go anywhere in the car it seems like everyone I meet either had one, still has one or their father, mother, daughter, etc has/had one.
Kind nuts.....

Once I was going SB on I-5, there was a black 914 I spotted on the NB shoulder. I had just passed an off ramp, so it was about a 10mile+ trip to get turned around. The guy had a 2-0 which was over heating. He was driving from LA area up north for a party or something (he was a drummer.) It ended up he was hauling ass, and ended up running low on oil. He pulled it over as soon as it felt hot. I didn't have any oil with me (wasn't in the 914), but followed him to the next off ramp to get to a gas station. 1.5qt's later he was on his way. His valves sounded loose, he said he was going to check them when he got to his destination. I have his contact info (and name of his band) some place, but never followed up, or found out if he made it to where he was going.

I never see 914's but I see alot of 911's and such. I have Rennlist buisness cards (VERY VERY nicely made cards.. I wish we as a club had some) and I stick them under their wipers. But If I saw a 914 I'd write 914world.com on the card and do the same thing.

I saw one today, parked in the G. I. Joes lot in Gresham. A black 75 or 6 (can't tell the diff yet) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Went up & looked at it. It had after market seats covered with store bought covers. Body wasn't too bad. Looked like after market Fuchs & stock ride height. Thought about sticking a 914Club card on the wiper but din't have one wit me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
