56. I wanted one since I was 16. Only took me 30+ years. I've owned a lot of cars but the 914 is a keeper.

68, have had 6 914s. Had a six ordered in '72, but instead ordered a 4 and picked it up at the factory, then drove it through 9 European countries. It was then shipped from London to Chicago. One was the M1 class Autocross champion at the Porsche Parade in San Antonio, as well as the class champion in the Michelin slalom Challenge. in 1997.

There's a story to be told here. That's a lot of history to jam into a short sentence. Mike

In my case, older than your average bear, young enough to enjoy our cars (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I learn something new about 914's everyday, but forget by the next morning. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
