Do people really think the 914 is ugly? I never thought so.
I have seen far uglier cars...many of them. Even most cars today are not worth a second look. I remember it coming out as a kid. So many had poor things to say about the 914. My older brother was Chalon crazy. (he liked the car on his own with no outside influences) Sadly, I listened to friends and the press...and was too young to form my own opinion. What had people not liking the car? what's not to like: the pop up headlights...about as cool as it can get the trick removable roof. the two storage spaces the engine in the middle? who does that, its amazing. the simple, never out of style interior. the lightest seats in the world. the Italian style door handles. flush and wonderful. I think of it as another little 904. a good red one looks like a Ferrari to me. a friend of mine had a gold, low mileage second gen , angled shaped, Dino (from around 1976). yes, it was neat, but I like the 914 better. I cannot get enough of the car. I'm more fascinated with it more today than any earlier decade. I mean the car was incredible at Le Mans. I knew a guy who said he had over 20 of the cars...and could look at them all day. what an amazing car that was 50 years ahead of its time. I can't think of a single high production car, in all history that was more unique, and stayed unique for decades. spending time with an airplane, and what color is this?? 4x4 in the mountains of Europe |

Its a 914. Some people don't care for Carmen Electra either.
