I’d like to show some different 914 pics month to month. No offense to Jim but we’ve been looking at the same car for too long. I don’t think car of the month has to necessarily be a competition or vote. The members of this site have so many variations of a 914. Let’s show them on World.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Whether it's a 3-Car vote for COTM, or just getting cars lined up in a "que" of sorts to be displayed monthly, it would be great to have different cars displayed each month. Thank you Mark! BTW, no matter which way it goes, I think that campbellcj's car is another EPIC 5 star car that deserves some front page time.

I don't think there is a need for drawing out a selection with a voting process, believe mepstein will make a good benevolent dictator selection. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

We box ourselves into a corner by setting the expectation that this is car of the month. When the month is done then the old men in the balcony start griping.

How about we call it "914 World Featured 914" or "Home page 914" or similar to not set an expectation of time?

And why not feature cars in progress? That could be interesting and "outside" observers might be drawn into something that inclusive?

Let mepstein run it how he wants without rules...

He's a "Big Dog" and most members will support him. I will!

One rule should be "No pestering mepstein about what you'd like to see".

Trial run for 3 months.

Let him change cars how and when he wants.

Might be Car of Week! Let's see what he can do.

I'm in agreement, cars that should be shown, not just the perfect beauty queens.

Both of Tygaboy's cars should be candidates even though they look ghetto.

We all know what has gone in them and Tyga's right!

The journey is what it's all about...


If he screws it up, we can hunt him down!

A trial run of something different can't hurt, would be good to see some of the other amazing cars on here.

Elect a COM caretaker and give him freedom to set his rules. Elections could be held every 6 months (although I have a feeling this will quickly get pushed to every year..,or more…).

So far, one candidate. He has my vote. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
