Sorry guys, I tried to watch it but couldn’t get past the first 2 minutes. He lost me with all the caveats about knowing next to nothing about Porsche yet having strong opinions (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

I think he is the mechanic for some guy on the internet that has a lot of expensive cars. Hoovies garage on youtube. Buck He is Hoovie's garage mechanic. I also remember watching an episode that he totally messed up one of the cars by putting the wrong fluid someplace. I appreciate how he is able to work on a variety of Hoovie's cars but never felt he was an expert after that error. I'd take that 911 over either of my 914s. The funny thing is whenever I drive around, people come up to me and compliment the car and a few "I/friend/dad used to have one" stories. Not that I like to be bugged/approached by folks but the uniqueness of our cars is the reason I don't ditch it for a Miata RF. |

Insulted yet again! Just received the new Pano. Not sure who the new scribe Lyn Woodward is but she sure doesn't think much of our Teeners. At least she didn't NARP it. Well, she kinda did.

Being insulted in Pano is a little more personal than some random Youtube "influencer," but I still have mixed emotions. In a way I feel like any insults within Porsche circles are bringing the world back into balance to the way things should be. Every time I get a wave or headlight flash from a 911 these days, I get dizzy and disoriented because my brain just can't quite process what is happening. It just seems so wrong.

I'm glad he doesn't know how popular 914s are with the general population.
Not to long ago, when I was about to leave the beach, a couple of tong clad lovelies asked if they could take a picture with the car. Not wanting to put a black spot on our marque's name, I said sure, I'd be happy to take their picture with the car. I'm pretty sure that wouldn't of happened if I was driving an Escort. |

Does anyone really care what he thinks? I don't. He never drove a 914 especially GT or some of the fast 914's, so what could he know about the car.
