School me on 914's

They have been a car I previously didn’t care for but they have grown on me and I want to know more about them. How are they to own/maintain, are they expensive to own and are there any good forums for them? These three examples from Patrick Motorsports are fucking hot! They also have quite a few other hot cars to their credit.

the porsche ‘el camino’? i like it. i like different design cars.

I can tell you that they are slow off the line, and can throw away a lead, but are damn impressive in the corners;

I can also tell you that there is a beat two fer one on ebay:

Other than being able to enter in search fields on ebay and youtube I can’t offer anything more.

Always thought these were cool myself, very simple to work on and cheap. Heres one I might check out this week.

black is pure secks

FACT:
If this same exact car was made by Pontiac and not Porsche all you guys that proclaim to think its HOT would hate on it sooo hard you probably break your keyboards bashing it.

Pontiac did it was called a fiero, If you aren’t going to contribute anything useful to the topic, then please stop posting in it.

Well now that i know its a pontiac product…

I think it looks terrible…

Its no CTS-v

Heh, if you like rust (moreso than my Datsun) enjoy.

I totally Agree!

It is no CTS-V

eviljay just walked in my room and said the same thing when he saw the picture.

Rust is the biggest issue - battery box - floor pan, etc.
914-6 ftw - 911 motor, brakes, flared fenders.
Keep in mind 914s didn’t even carry the Porsche badge in Germany they were VW.:mamoru:

Does that make it worse? Isn’t it exactly the same car still? I don’t see how a badge would change your mind on whether or not you like a car.
