Over the years of driving our 914, I've noticed some people seem infuriated just to see a 914 going down the road. I could be driving any of our cars and have a normal drive around town but get into the 914 and you would swear I was chopping up babies and throwing them out on the road. People will tailgate, speed up to keep you boxed in, just about anything rude you can think of. Now, this won't apply to the jack stand crowd, unless you have rude neighbors who yell things as they walk by the garage, but how often these days, are other people getting the "It's only a VW" phrase, or getting road abused? Maybe it's just So. Cal, but I'm curious what others are experiencing.

Drive a creamsicle & see what happens. People follow you, circle you, stop @ the gas station to check you out, etc... Other Porsches give you a look & wave or thumbs up. They attract a lot of attention, however for me it's been all positive & never negative. When I tell them it came from the factory this way, I always get this look- (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)
