My girlfriend no longer likes the 914 since she's experienced the comfort of the 911SC. The 914's heater is also very stinky (needs some pushrod tube seals and new or cleaned out HEs) and the gf is always cold.

My g/f can't drive a stick---LMFAO (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Awwwww... her loss. Judging by the way she's beat the shit out of her Cavalier, I probably wouldn't let her drive it anyway.

BUT.... she does like riding in it.. so long as we're not going somewhere where her hair needs to look good.

I can't complain... she's pretty supportive of my hobbies.

In fact, I'm entering my first autocross on June 12th... and she's expressed an interest in entering as well... in the "chick" runs.......... In my Acura of course.

I says, "Yup, makes it corner real flat"

all I said after that was, "I'm comfortable" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

She loves you! Otherwise, she would have opened the door, and rolled out on your turn!

Proof!

Best you can do.

My wife usually doesn't connect with my passion for the 914.

At the end of the track day at WCC-05 I handed over the car to
Leymon (my instructor) and asked him to take her out for a couple of laps.

She came back with a smile that lasted two days.

I think she understands now. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mueba.gif)

My bride and I drove the 914 home from our wedding--23 years ago. She still loves it--even after all these years of no-starts, push-starts, flat-tows, dashboard fire, etc., etc. I'm big-time lucky too!

BTW, used it this afternoon to pick up our anniversary present . . . .

I turn 39 soon and I told my wife that I either needed a Porsche or a girlfriend. She is very practical and said "Porsche". Ha! I win again because my wife is hot.

My wife will get into SOL to do brake bleeds....thas it.
She does like the new paintjobthatwasheridea specially when I tell her how much money we saved by the DIY deal....all she says is "How's your headache?"...I think she's coming around.

It used to be a steady diet of "What the hell(or worse) you doin' out there? "Just some tunin'", sez I....." You call it tunin' I call it pissin' off the neighbors"......"Yeah but they won't say nuthin' or I won't loan em' any tools"......"Asshole"...

My wife has loved every 914 I have owned and critiques my shifting and my line through corners when I drive. She is the one who encoraged me to buy my current 914. She has driven formula Fords on Laguna Seca and has tried her hand behind the wheel of the 914 on The Streets. When I bought her Audi A4 her first question to me was when are you going to put some real springs and Koni Yellows on the car and how about a chip? I still cant get her to go to AX events for some reason ...maybe she has a boyfreind who drives on the track! ...I am blessed (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

It was the wife's idea to buy the 914 to begin with. About 4 years ago I told her it's gonna take some serious time and money to keep it running decent. She said "Go for it." And just last year I was going to sell it to finance my classic Mustang project. She said " No way! Keep both of them." I guess I'm lucky.

Now, I have the backwards household. I've been working on VW's my entire "adult" life, and just recently got into the 914 world. My husband just doesn't get it. It's not going to get him chicks. It's not going to get ME chicks, so what's the benefit? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/lol2.gif)

Now... if I can only get him to either buy me a 914, or give me a raise... I'm in the unfavorable position of working for his company... Doesn't give me much leverage for purchasing BIG toys... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)

my wife loves Porsches, one reason we have three, but doesn't get along well with the 914. Drives the heck out of the other two though.
