The 914 is dwarfed by the newer Porsche. Is that a Boxster?

The Boxster is REALLY nice, and quick. I just got it and so far I'm impressed. The 914 may get a little lonely.

Any chance you can take some pics of the cooling system? It's probably well shrouded but I'm curious how it exhausts through the wheel well...The center intake exhausts down? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)

Remember the performance and picture it in a lighter 914! The prototype should be running this summer...

You need some titanium jackstands, and a platinum key fob.

I'll jack it up this weekend and take some pictures. Just glancing under the front, it looks like all the cooling air exits on the bottom.

I like it!

If I ever get a job again, I want a Box S, Cayman or an early 911.
Nice job Tommy!

Very nice looking Boxster, but I still think your teener is purtier.
They've both got to be a blast to drive though.

Tommy, I guess the 6 conversion funds you were talking about have found a home. I guess this was probably a little easier!

Nice car, I'm sure it's a blast to drive. Congratulations! Any plans on Auto-Xing it?

And I can't believe you would do this after trying to talk me out of painting the teener silver!!!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif)

yes, this is my "six" conversion.

We'll, I guess I changed my mind on the silver. Or maybe it was the red calipers that did it for me.

Really it was my wife who picked the color.

If my wife wouldn't give me hard time about getting one, I'd let her pick the color too!!!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)
