wow, very simple interior, interesting looking, cant decide if i like it or not...i do like how the engine is more accesible when the trunk is up...i had to fix a tube in the 914 today at the bottom of engine, its a pain with no lift trying to squeeze through the opening.

You need black, you just need it.

I know what you mean though, you should paint them all black.

Nothing wrong with twins!

I asked from curiosity -- I have mixed thoughts on 914 colors -- drag another car in and it sort of adds more to the mix. I went on a drive with the local Pcar club. I wanted a silver car and I have one. But in the crowd of a million silver boxters, red or black or silver 911s, it sort of disappeared. The stock 914's body style is just a little plain. (a silver GT rocks tho... ) The Ravena 914 held it's own.

But the elise has a pretty noticeable body style. Sort of GT like. A vanilla color will accent that, in that it will draw attention to the features of the body.

Dunno what I would pick. (I'm not currently purchasing one, so I don' t have to make choices (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)) But I _am_ interested in your choice. It's a cool car -- good hunting!

Hey Karl -

GREAT pictures. Do you have them at full resolution? (I have lots of pixels!)

That picture of the yellow opne is just awesome. I advocate you getting the Yellow one.

Fiid.
