Hmmmm, with conversion to a "6" plus significant other 911 parts - suspension, crank fire, electric AC, LED lights, other stuff, say 60%. But driving fun is plus 200% (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif)

I have 5 914's and probably owned about 20 others. Unfortunately, the vins all start with 47 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)


If I tried to remember my vins, it would probably displace what little remains.

Sold due to my divorce. 5,143 miles on the odometer.

I’ve heard the new owner may have reset it, with an all new story as well...

True Story: I went to my installer today to make an appointment to get a replacement spare tire mounted and balanced.

I answered all of their questions about the tire and wheel I planned to drop off.

They asked if I could provide the cars VIN ?

I replied: "Four - Seven - Three - Two - Nine - One - . . . . "

They interrupted: "You do not have your VIN Number memorized ? ! ? !"

Me: (Big shit eating grin.) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . . . . . and then I started again: "4 7 3 2 9 1 0 7 8 7."

Mine is a 914-6 VIN ending in 0928. Does that count as knowing? LOL
