Drove thru the countryside last week with the top off for the first time, and she wasn't the same?! Felt more unsettled and subject to wind gusts, and I was surprised at the difference? Began to appreciate the flow dynamics of the top, and got a sunburn/windburn while doing the research!

Naaa.... doesn't necessarily mean your car is falling apart. Neither of the 914s I've owned had rust on the longs.... at all...... but they both drove better with the top on.
Could just be that the rear targa bar is like dragging aroung a parachute... thats what I attribute it to. My car feels "sloppier" around curves, not necessarily "hard" cornering, but I can definately feel it on "fast" cornering with the top off. Plus...... the car doesn't accelerate on the highway as quickly (like from 60mph to 80mph) with the top off. No worries (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif) |
