Perhaps these "classics" would make you nostalgic for the days when you'd dare call the 914s' "styling" "awkward". Compared to many of todays' automotive styling exercises, I'd say the 914 is an example of restraint, clarity and purposeful design.

Pretty ironic... 914 owners calling other cars ugly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Yes, but at least the 914 was form follows function. It's like the new cars go out of there way to be ugly. If it's your thing, cool. But stay the FUCH out of my way just because you want to make sure you get that 56 MPG. I'll loose gas mileage if i need to maintain speed uphill. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) |
