Hey everyone!! I am in the market for either a 912 or a 914 and would like some input.. The only experience i've ever had with a 914 was a '73 ITB race car that i only owned about 6 months but i loved the car.. As for the 912's, they seem like alot of fun too but from what i'm gathering the maintenance on them are nightmares. How are the 914's maintenance wise?? Do they make decent runabout daily drivers? I already have an early 1974 911 Carrera with a turbo stuffed in it so i'm not looking to go fast.. Just want a fun little porsche that gets good mileage. Any help would be appreciated, I just dont know which way to go! Thanks! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/aktion035.gif)

Sports car, Family car.
Mid-engine, Engine in the wrong place. Go Kart Handling, kinda go kartish handling of sorts. not 911 brakes, not 911 brakes Oh and something about a crank shaft problem and a few other parts that make certain years of the 912 less desirable. But I guess that goes with all cars in a way. If you have kids get the 912. |
