You guys are all so wonderfully sweet! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) And, yeah, you bet your butt there are TONS of stories (he's up to 411,000 miles now). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/new_shocked.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smlove2.gif)


Keeping it all in the mid-engine family - I third, or fourth (or whatever number we're up to) the Fiat X-19!

But wait... no love for the Toyota MR2? I got my butt kicked regularly by one of those back in my SCCA autocross days (although we found out years later he had to cheat to beat me). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Or there's always Son Of 914 - the Porsche Boxster (I know a bunch of you have one of those)?
Attached Image

Perhaps the Delorean? A niece and nephew (it's her car, not his) have one. Unfortunately it's not optioned like the one in the picture below. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

And we can't forget Grandson Of 914 - the Porsche Cayman (I know some of you have one tucked away in the garage)!

But my ultimate choice - as a good and proper 'Runner-Up and Honorable Mention' to a 914 of your choosing for COTM honors is........... <fanfare that sounds a lot like horns beeping like a crowd of cars applauding in one of the 'Cars' movies>...........


The 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO which sold for $48.4 million dollars last year!

How freaking incredibly awesome would it be for the Premier 914 Website In The World to give second place - also known as First Loser (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) - in their 914 Car Of The Month, year, millenium (whatever gets decided) to a '62 Ferrari GTO - one of the most expensive cars ever?!?! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)


That would seriously have to be a poster (like a 'Motor Trend - Import Car Of The Year cover or something like that) with a small picture of the runner-up in the bottom corner! I'd buy multiples... just so I could have one hanging in every single room of the house. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

That's a fun idea Betty. If your car has 400k in stock format....you should "win".

For fun sake, why not have any member(s) other mid engine p cars or other mid engine cars of any maker post their cars for consideration?


I'd nomiate John Petersons 09 987.2 Cayman with sport chrono and red interior...I think he sold it though....ultimately I think will become the best year of the Cayman ever built.

Post a pic of the Delorean. That'd be cool. Way ahead of its time.

Here's my 06 CS 987.1

I'm looking for another air-cooled p car but this time a six.
