68, have had 6 914s. Had a six ordered in '72, but instead ordered a 4 and picked it up at the factory, then drove it through 9 European countries. It was then shipped from London to Chicago. One was the M1 class Autocross champion at the Porsche Parade in San Antonio, as well as the class champion in the Michelin slalom Challenge. in 1997.

Here, I'll lower it, if ever so slightly.

I'm 52 until July 4, at which point advanced math says I'll be 53.

But I bitch and moan like I'm 85.

55.....

77 and on my 2nd 914.
First was a 70 in 1976, 77 when i had to sell it, needed more seating for kids. It had injectors of my design till I reverted to stock to sell it.

Now have 76 for 6 yrs now just back running 2056 with carbs & a cam upgrade, runs strong. It was quite rust free thank the gods !!

I’m 59. beerchug.gif

Bought my first 914 at 20 and sold it to my brother. Had lots of 914’s since but have had the current one for 15 years. Two grandkids (5 & 3-1/2) that absolutely love riding in the 914! Another grandchild on the way so the tradition hopefully continues.

72.

Bought my first 1.7 914 in April 1970. Early numbers. Sold in May 1975 for the exact amount I paid for it. Current car is 1975.....lots of upgrades. Surprisingly can still fit in it and drive it enough to annoy the neighbors. Much more fun than the current 'computer cars'.

Just about to hit a birthday that ends in a zero... have my 9/70 build 914 I've had since new. It was my first car as my dad wouldn't let me have a car until I graduated from college (he was much smarter than I am)... so you do the math.

35 owned about 15 914s so far .

Still no move from 55 being the average so I think after nearly 150 responses we have our answer.

So the average ago of a 914 is 55 years old beerchug.gif
