I am going to have to take the third option that was left out .. I just got a 914 and have a 911its a n 80 SC ... i like to think I am one that likes it for what it is .. its not a garage queen and usually dirty, no chrome, handles like a dream in the twisties and does ax duty and never gets washed or wiped down as soon as it hits the driveway ..
I do most of my own wrenching and help out others when and if possible ..

Sorry I got side tracked but I would take the 25k and smartly place a few orders and get a few of the wish I had the money for that parts .. o and get the 914 a paint job ...

Here on 914world I predict the 914 wins. Ask the same on a 911 forum and get a different answer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

The only reason I went with the 911 RS clone is 'cos I'm already having Series9 build me a 914 RS better-than-clone! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif)

I couldn't help voting for the 914-6 GT clone. They are just so much fun to drive.

I'd take the 911 RS clone. Already most of the way there with mine anyway (performance wise), and I have never liked the 914 GT flares (prefer the narrow body look or a subtler, more rounded flare).

OK, I'll bite...would it need the 4-cam engine in it, or would a Polo 911/4 engine be good enough?

The reason I got a 914 to build is if I'm still standing when it's done. I will
build a RS clone next...I have a 82 SC but hope I don't get punched in the
mouth for admitting it....ALL PORSCHES ARE UNIQUE IN THIER OWN WAY I ALWAYS SAY........ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif)

Your safe. You like 914s. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I like the 911RS alot. Would even like to build an RS clone when the teener is done. I'll continue to hang out here if I do. I like this crowd. It's most likely my bad luck that every guy I ever met with an undeserved sense of self importance happened to own a 911.

I have a 1983 911SC that is a RS light conversion. Custom front/rear bumpers with a ducktail, PMO carb's with SSI headers and sport muffler. I love the car. Also have a 1975 914GT clone with a 3.0 and Weber carb's and sport muffler. Love the car. They are two totally different animals but coexist just fine in the same garage. I am not a 911 snob I have owned a 944S also and loved that car to. Don't paint with a broad brush not all 911 owners are a-holes. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Neither. Now a 914/8 or 911/8 - hands down I'd take the 914! I've had early 911's and a stock 914/6 - utterly boring and won't ever do it again. Some people are easier to please... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

914-6 GT for sure. The RS clones are everywhere anymore since backdating cars has become so much easier.

Now, if it was a 911 ST clone, I would go tail dragger for sure.....
