COTM June 2013 - It's back! OK, 914World members, it's time to nominate your pick for the car of the month! This contest is run by members for members, to enjoy some competition and celebrate the great Porsche 914. Here are the guidelines:

1. Nominate your pick for COTM through June 20th (no self nominations).
2. Your pick must be seconded by another 914world member to be officially nominated (only those 914s seconded will be part of the poll).
3. The first five (5) cars nominated and seconded form the roster for the poll.
4. Poll will be open for 10 days, starting June 21st and closing at 23:59 EST June 30th.
5. Winner announced July 1st (Canada Day, eh, for you Canucks!)
6. The winning car will be featured on 914World home page until the subsequent winner is announced.

To everyone with a 914 about to enter this contest, remember "Winning is everything. The only ones who remember you when you come second are your wife and your dog. – Damon Hill"

Best of luck to all!

You know, I was going to nominate a car the minute I saw this thread then saw that my car is in it already (Thanks Wills and Elliot!).

Then I thought, well why the hell not?! Then I saw that there are five already, but not all have been seconded.

So, while it may be a bit odd, my car being in this competition already, since there are two other non-big-motor entries are there that haven't been seconded, I'd like to second Neun Veirzehns amazing '70. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)


Tangent:
Competition is good and this isn't much more than a popularity contest anyway - but what's awesome about these COTM things that I really love is that it shows off all sorts of cool cars and gives us collectively a lot of ideas seeing what others have done without having to go across the country to see it in person, as the case may be.

One may guess rather easily that I'm not shy about modifications to the 914 - though I am definitely appreciative of those that work to preserve them, it's just not to my own taste. Make 'em rock as well as roll, I say. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

And yes, I'm officially coming out of the closet as a fan of Mahle gas burners. Whew, what a relief to finally say it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

Great work 914World members - you have successfully filled the slate with 5 cars nominated and seconded within 24 hrs. Thank you!

NOMINATIONS are now CLOSED.

The preliminary roster is as follows:
1. URY914
2. Nelson's 3.2
3. Rod's 1.7
4. Ellisor3
5. ezbngreen914

I will post more information about the cars along with the poll later tonight with the FINAL roster for COTM voting this month.

Thanks again for the nominations and seconds!

All great cars - they are 914s!

Shawn

All;
Yes, I made an error earlier on the 5th nomination (sincere apologies to all). When I QC'd this list I realized time stamps placed the nomination/second of ezbngreen914 as the 5th spot on the roster.
