My owner's manual records the original sale delivery of my '74 2.0L on April 18, 1974 from a dealership called Contemporary Cars Porsche-Audi in Orlando, FL. I've checked the Porsche website for current dealers & this is not listed, so I guess it's out of business. Anybody heard of this dealer and maybe what became of it??

Contemporary Cars is now called Porsche of North Orlando.
It was purchased by AutoNation a number of years ago.
It used to be located on Mercy Drive and is now located on Orlando Avenue (or highway 17-92).
It is about 4 miles from my office.

Thanks Karl. Yes, Mercy Drive is the address on my 914 delivery stamp.
