Just wanted to say Thank You to everyone here. I am not new to the VW/Porsche vehicles. However, sometimes I might have what could be classified as a stupid question with an obvious answer.(can't possibly know everything! Lol) The responses I have received here on this site have all been very informative and helpful. I have posted questions about my VWs on The Somba before. sometimes I get the answer I am looking for. more often than not I see smart ass answers or remarks. or constant redirects to other threads. I no longer bother with that site any longer! Thanks again guys!!

Same opinion here. Never been on the samba, but I’ve steered clear of forums since I shut down the Ducati forum I used to run 12yrs ago.

I think the main difference here is most folks here are long time 914 owners and have seen the car become more and more rare. So, there’s a heartfelt interest in keeping as many on the road as they can.

I assume it may have something to do also with the age group. I am 62. At the VW shows, the average age is 20s early 30s. At the Porsche shows, the average age is closer to my age.

There is a lot of knowledgeable people on this site. You will get smart ass answers from time to time, but they are usually just kidding around.

914World is the best forum on the net. I have other cars and I am on those sites. Nothing close to the 914 owners out there imo.

We have one simple rule: There are no DUMB questions. Everyday is a learning opportunity. Try to store some sort of new information between the ears everyday. biggrin.gif

We wouldn’t have anything to talk about if we stopped being fearlessly incorrect!

its been pretty hard to have an ego if you own a 914 for the last 50 years.

always nice to run into someone who liked them. thats been my experience.

good you are enjoying your car. stay away from the negatroids. life is too short. beerchug.gif
