Hi All,

I am a new member, and have thoroughly enjoyed reading the posts. I am also a new, retread 914 owner. I am having some difficulty with my ownership of the car.

I have had the car for about 4 months and love driving the car. It makes the best sounds of any car.

The car is very nice and extremely fast for a street car. The car has been set up very well and really deserves to be driven by someone who really is looking for a car that is very nearly a race car.

I know that I will not use the car for anything other than joy rides to Stinson Beach on the weekends or to pick up my kid after school on Fridays. I will never use the car for the purpose for which all the modifications were made. Do you think this is OK?

I am considering selling/trading the car for a stock 911 or an original 914/6. I guess something more sedate.

Any opinions?


PS: The attached photo is my favorite view of the car.

Going to a 914/6 2.0l will slow you down some thats for sure.....depends on what 911 you get plus you'll gain the two small seats for more kids.
I like the early 911's alot but consider the later ones more of a Granpa car.

Seems like you have a really nice ride already and should AX the car with the Bay Area group for more fun!
