A few years ago I was watching news coverage of one of the fires/floods/mud slides in California and during an interview with a homeowner I saw a silver 914 with flares drive by in the background. Ok, sure, maybe not big news in California but in Brackney, PA it's an event. Wondered if it belonged to anyone that ended up here...

Spotted a 914 in 1987 movie "Roxanne" with Steve Martin and Daryl Hannah.
Didn't Get Smart drive up in a 914 at the start of the show? I know he had an Opel GT and maybe an Karmann Ghia. Yeah, I'm reminiscing... |

No he never drove a 914. He used 2 Sunbeams - an Alpine and a Tiger. He did also use a Kharman Ghia and an Opel GT. http://www.geocities.com/TelevisionCity/Sa.../7529/cars.html Attached image(s) |

Sunbeam Tiger
Now there is a cool car. Power to spare. If you look into obtaining one, nice ones are $20K + (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) They are cool cars. I have a buddy of mine that owns one that was passed down from his Dad. The Dad was the second owner. My buddy is very knowledable of the Tigers and he's qualified/certified to authenticate a car as a Tiger. When I started looking at restoring a car, he wanted me to get a Tiger and he would have helped with the restoration. We couldn't find one that was for sale, before I found the 914 I have. He knew a neighbor that had a MK II that needed restoration, but the guy wouldn't fix it or sell it. Hopefully he can get the guy to sell it and finally get a great car back on the road.

Last week, during the first several minutes of the TV movie, 10.5, there was a red flared fendered 914 partially buried under some Seattle rubble.

Rockford Files man! Jimmy's lady friend was in several episodes and she drove
a 914. Garner had a few episodes where he was getting a ride from her also. There was a 914 in that episode he got beat up. 853OKG |

There's a blue 914 drives accross in the background in "Annie Hall" the Woody Allen movie. It's towards the end when they do Brunch in LA.

hey, i saw 9 to 5 today, well at least the part with the 914s. the 1st one was silver with steel wheels and hubcaps, i think it was a 6. the exhaust looked like a stock 6 exhaust. the second one looked black, looked like the sail and targa trim were blacked out and the rear bumper was black. it had 4 lug fuchs and what looked like a monza 4 tip exhaust. funny that the 2 were in the same hospital scenes. what's with 914s and hospital scenes?!? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
9 to 5 was on the AMC channel and it's scheduled to come on again overnight and tomorrow. now i got to see the other movies!! |

I had a MkII Tiger. The last model made after Chrysler bought Rootes and killed the Tiger because it didn't want to sell a Ford product. It had a small Chrysler five star emblem on the one front fender, Ford engine, mfg by Rootes. Talk about a bastard child. I miss the car but the rear suspension was no good for twisties.

Watched Murder by Numbers (Sandra Bullock) and saw an orange 914. It pulled into a parking space in the background during the scene where Richie Haywood was on a pay phone with the D.A. Did anybody else catch it?

I've got another sighting that I haven't seen mentioned anywhere.
In "Menace II Society" some guys are in a parking garage and steal a car and are blocked in by the police when they try to drive out. They try to run and hide behind some other cars--one is a white 914! Not especially my type of movie--just happened to park on that particular channel long enough to catch another rare sighting (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) |
