I just watched this show, very cool. Sorry, no 914 content that I noticed, but lots of cool Porsches. The cameramen went on a test drive in a new Ruf car, up to 219MPH!
Now that's what I call a test drive. Nobody ever told me what a beautiful road it is.
Are you sure it wasn't 219KMH? Just curious.
I know the RUF could do 220+ MPH, but if they were in Germany they generally have KPH gauges. So i was just curious.
It may have been 212, my memory isn't what it once was, but I'm sure that it was MPH, it was a British guy's car so the speedo read in miles.
I had the pleasure of driving on the autobahn this summer cu, but my little Fiat Punto S rental's engine cuts out at 140kmph.
That's too funny! My cousin's Fiat Seiciento 1.3 was doing 160 KPH with 3 of us and still had to get out of everyone's way. Lots of accidents though...one held us up for 1.5 hrs after a tractor trailer jack-knifed. You should have seen/heard the Mercs/Audi's/Bimmers/Lambo's/Ferrari's flashing by on the other side of the highway...WHOOSH. R

I got to drive the autobahn this September. Went with the Auotbahn Adventures Tour. Drove a new Carrera that was supplied by Avis. I had a 180MPH renta-car! Think interstate highway system without the expansion joints. Lots more speed limits than I thought there would be. Got up to 250 kph at one point. Much traffic. Stuttgart to Frankfurt it was bumper to bumper. Looked like the 405 freeway in Orange County at 5:00pm. One of the best vacations ever and can't wait to go back. I got pics on the other computer that is at the moment down with a VIRUS.
Cheers, Elliot
