I miss the targa top and open air feel that car had, so much so I think I will be going to a convertable of some sort in the future. Nice to see another 914 aficionado

My dad had a 914 when I was a kid, I loved that car and it got me into Porsches. Can't tell the front from the back but that was a great little car. He took out the engine to work on it...but abandoned the project and never put it back in.

This talk about Porshces makes me wanna put my 944 back online and use it as my DD.

The 914/6 was a beast, had the 911 engine in it. I know a lot of guys that replaced the 4 banger with the 6 and turned the car into a rocket

After $15K maybe

Probably less than 15k to beat a Cayman or "S", but to beat a GT3 RS…. $30k-40k?

Interesting article as I just bought my 370 last weekend, I test drove both cars repeatedly and walked away wanting the 370 more, money was not a factor.
