Went to breakfast with the PCA folks yesterday and rode in my friend’s 2008 Cayman. After spending 2 hours in the car I concluded that it wasn’t the car for me. I had thought that adding a newer pcar to the family would be fun and that the older midengine would be a smart choice. It just didn’t make me smile like the 914. When we were done with breakfast the line of cars all looked alike. I noticed that people notice more about the color of these cars than the lines of the body. No visual excitement
I need to get my locks fixed and get my car back on the road! |

I had my 71 914 at the Pittsburgh Historic Grand Prix car show last July and there were only a couple of 914s out of the approximately 200 Porsche's. Many people stopped by to look at my 914 whereas most of the cars were newer models, most w/o that pesky 3rd peddle for the clutch. You could look down the rows of new Porsche's and they all looked the same. The older 911's and 914's really stood out.
