Looks like Matt finally gets to drive a 914 with some umph.
Driver car, not pretty but has some cool bits on it. Engine was pieced together to make a 2.5 twin plug that made 220whp when it was in his old 911 racecar. Sounds good when he revs it out (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Sounds like the guy needs a RennShift (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Hate is because most posters are probably 12 year olds (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Not real car guys, just buying a Subaru or Honda and throwing rims on it does not make one a car guy. I bet 99% of the negative commenters have never driven a decent 914 and half of those people never saw one in person.

I read a lot of positive comments on the 914. I've been hoping someone could get a good running car in there since the poor running 914 was filmed.

I would love to have Matt take mine for a ride, but I hear he's going to be finishing up TST and moving on to another venture shortly.

Can't satisfy everyone, right?

He drove this one a lot better than the previous 1.9.. that's for sure (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

It's the Youtube comments section. Of course there are people crapping on the 914 there. There are people who will crap on anything in Youtube comments.

Ignore the comments section, it's better for your blood pressure. (And your faith in humanity.)

I bet 50% of us here haven’t driven a decent 914 either. Including me.
