I have been wondering a lot lately if there is an equivalent of a light weight sports car like a 914 made for today’s drivers. The 914 seems to have been focused on driving, rather than comfort: my 61 Falcon was no less comfortable or optioned. I know they have to pass safety and emissions. A toybaru?

I can say that driving a BRZ/FRS/AE86 whatever you call them now feels a LOT like driving a modern 914, even though its a front/rear setup instead of mid engine.
So much so that I have been considering picking one up. Zach |

That was my son's vote, for the first car he bought 'with his own money', after having had a 914-6 to drive for summer vacations of college years. I had a chance to drive it when he left it with me for a week, very modern updated, could also go too fast to quick... ;-)
