Uninformed propaganda like this continues to be good news for our cars because it diverts attention away from them and keeps them affordable. One of the really great things about the 914 is that it flies under the radar of the masses who would be more into beating on them, flipping them and expecting them to be something they are not. I say keep these uninformed opinion pieces coming.

This guy only seems to value HP and 0-60 times. Not what our cars are about.

some folks have taste.
and some..............don't have much of anything to offer the world at all.
lets keep it that way.

You don't even have to watch the whole thing. Just the first segment on the 70s.

Please make your comments known in this alleged car expert's video channel.

Presumably he makes money every time one of us clicks on his video and eats his baloney...

if you check out before watching the whole thing it goes on his permanent record.
affects his advertising potential. probably only marginally. i figure he just got 30 partial views on his negatroid meter.

Sounds like we need to do a meet & greet in Kansas.

He shows up in a car show on Motortrend called car problems or something like that.

You know what they say opinions are like a-holes, but since I don't give a crap about his opinion, I dont care what he says.

... this is music to my ears!

I say we forward this to everyone we know...... I am tired of the rising prices and scarcity of parts for our little 914.

We need a downturn in the 914 market..... or else I won't be able to afford to buy a third.

I think the Wizard has a point. All other things being equal, everyone should buy a 1970's Carrera RS instead of a 914. Oh yeah I forgot the RS costs a bit more than the 914 guess I better settle for that "kit car Volkswagen" 914.

Well, as someone that took a 914 from no run to reliable daily, I guess this should make me feel proud?

doesn't really seem right to criticize something you actually have zero experience and have never driven......

an informed opinion would mean that he actually knew the vehicle he was talking about.



Brant....isn't this the definition of common sense.


And why should anybody be angry?

Meh......move on.

Am curious to see the link, but not sure I care if someone has insulted my car.

As if that's something new for a 914 owner. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

If you know, you know—and you don't need everyone else to know. That's one of the best things about 914s and those who love them.

I cannot count the number of times I’ve been insulted because of my 914, from 1979 onward.
First time, “hey who owns the Fiat out front?” I answered it’s a Porsche he said well somebody just hit it.

The last time a week or so ago, PCA member I emailed about an event, to say I got the cold shoulder would be an understatement.

Insults don’t bother me, I’ve owned a Porsche 914 for a long time and really really really enjoy it. (mic drop)

I don't understand what you are all complaining about. Now that I know my car is a piece of (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) , I can get rid of it to save myself the agony of owning and driving it. I might as well give it away since it isn't worth anything. Anyone want to do me a solid and take this piece of crap off my hands? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
