As 2023 comes to a close, I think back at all of the years we (the 914 community) have been together on this site. I have been involved with 914s since 1985, and this place is something special.
Through this site, I have made hundreds of friends that share the same passion for these little cars as Betty and I do. Some of you I know very well, some of you I have met only once or a few times. And some of you I have never met in person. But you are all my friends (Yes, even you T.C. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ). I am extremely grateful for this place, and for the friendship and camaraderie found here. This site encompasses all that is good about car culture, and emphasizes how the rest of the world should work. We are able to set aside petty differences and focus on what is really important (914s). I also think back to those friends we have lost in the past. I hope that wherever they are, they know we think of them and miss them. To everyone on here, whether you are a newbie, or an old fart like me, I wish you Happy Holidays (I would go into details, but then I would have to give myself a timeout for violating the no religion rule). May your 914 run beautifully in the new year, and may the tinworm always be kept at bay. |

I second that toast!
This is the best car forum I've joined. Even the beginners are great! On all of my other forums I first check a poster's vitals as it appears to be useless to help a 19-year-old kid. Nothing but useless arguments... No so here. I've NEVER checked a poster's age on this site. Happy to be here as well, appreciative of the site. Happy Holidays to ya'll gear heads... |

This place has been so great for a relative newbie to 914s like me. I couldn't have refreshed this car to enable it's trip to Rennsport without the wisdom of the crew here.

Amen brotha!
Member since 08, lurked here a few years prior, I’ve carried on banter, tried to give practical experience when I could, and heeded lots of advice from members here, but I have met very few in person. I consider you all friends. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year to all! |

Merry Christmas all and I hope you and your families are safe and happy through out the new year. MattE and I are going to try to make it to a few more get togethers in the next few years and meet some more great people who love a little car that is just a blast to drive.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a nice little 914!
Clay said it all; I have been a member since 2008 and owned 914's since 1974. I can't imagine I will ever sell mine. I just pray I get many more years behind the wheel, driving and meeting other 914 owners. Without 914World.com, I would not have my car or the great group of friends this 914 has brought into my life. Bless all of you- and a special thanks to @SirAndy for this site. Cheers, Michael (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
