Had a VW Scirocco for the last 17 years, and the 914 almost a year now. I don't know how I lived without it. The mid engine is like cheating when it comes to handling. You're going to love it! First part I had to fix was the door handles. Felt right at home instantly.

check out the member vendors section of this site...between all of them you could almost build a 914 from scratch, and most of what they make is better than what the factory produced.
