A beautiful black 987 Black Boxster Spyder. Nice to see one in the wild. Kind of like a 914 minus the top.

Funny! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

There is this beautiful shiny high tech and performing modern Porsche, but we are all more interested in the old VW Beetle! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Clearly we are different... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I think it just depends upon which pathway you took to an appreciation of the 914. There are those of us who ended up here because of our love of our air cooled VW's, and there are those of us who ended up here because of an equal love of Porsches. I still have the 1959 VW ragtop Beetle that I bought 39 years ago so I guess you can figure out how I ended up here. So yes, I'm far more likely to be in the slow lane, downshifting to barely make it up a hill, and far more interested in the Beetle than a shiny high tech Porsche. I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in that slow lane.....
