For me mid-70's, I'm walking home from high school, this /6 with GT flair and the car was a rat rod in grey primer, it was on my home town main drag and the guy was honking on it. I actually didn't know it was a 914 till I saw a 914 with GT flairs up close a few years later.
It was pure sex, I was 13-14yrs/old, I probably went home and spanked one off to a car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) |

I remember seeing the commercials on tv when they were just about to be released I was 12 years old at the time. I remember thinking how cool they looked with a small rear window and 4 disk brakes when most cars just had disks in the front and drums in the rear. A short time later I saw one flying by on the freeway and said oh there's goes one and I was in love. 7 years later I got mine a 75 1.8 and I was so excited. I had it about a month and I let the girlfriend at the time use it while I was at work and she got drunk and rear ended someone and folded the left front in and the rear transmission case broke dropping the rear end to the ground. I was crushed and the girlfriend never paid for it, the estimate came out to 4500. My dad helped me get the parts and I fixed it myself 2 years later and I still have it today and I'm glad I hung on to it.
