47. Bought my 73 17 years ago. My dad had a six when I learned to drive. I was hooked. Wish he hadn't sold it.

Fitty eight and feeling 40. Purchased my first, damn near rust free, 914 in Cali and had it shipped to FL a couple of years ago. Enjoying every minute of the process of a complete rebuild. I can’t wait to drive it for the first time.

53 next month. Fell in love with the 914 in the mid 70s as a kid. Bought my first one at 48 (supposed to buy my youngest their car) and my 2nd one at 50 (because I'm old and can buy a 2nd). I'll be glad when I'm done paying off all these random car payments (2 cars for the kids and my 2nd 914).

Turning 60 next month, I am hopeful that I will have mine on the road in May.

Will be 76 in Sept. First 914 bought in 1980. Parted out about 15 of the cars in the next 20 years. Wish I had kept track of the Vins. Currently have a 73 2.0 Auto-X car. ( 31 years ownership ) and a 73 1.7 project that I'll likely never finish.
ConeDodger
65 and 3 and 2/3rds grandchildren. I’ll probably sell the 914 in a year or so. The kids like the 240Z better... blink.gif

I got the 914 when I was 36. I am turning 43 this year.

My 10 year old daughter is claiming the car is hers to keep. I agree with her.

73 in September no grand children but my youngest son is 12, step son’s 25 and my daughters 48. I was ready to sign the paperwork on a year old brand new (they couldn’t get rid of them) 1970 914 6 when my first wife informed me of our baby on the way, a surprise she was holding out on telling me of this special occasion but decided it should be before I bought the car hence never got the 914 6.

Interesting topic Jeff! I've always looked at Mrs. K's/Rob's Birthday posts to see the same thing - young-uns vs us old farts vs. middluns!

I'm 66 point something!? .... I hit 67 in Sept.

PS - 2 kids & 3 grandkids & counting....

Bought my 73 2L in Dec. 1975 at 23 from the OO - looking to escape my gas guzzling `69 Pontiac Ventura 400 ci beast in the aftermath of the 1st oil crisis' resulting $1-1.25/gal gas - which seems low today, but was up 400-500% in a matter of 2 months from the prior 20-25 cents per gal.!

Still waiting to get her fixed/resto'd & back on the road!

My drivers license says 70, but I’m not sure that’s trustworthy.

Well I feel better now. I am older than about 60%, and younger than about 40% of you. My first 914 was over 40 years ago. Guess I can continue to enjoy it for awhile longer. drooley.gif
