had a friend with a 348. I think we are in a different ball-park altogether than they are maintenance wise.
You could buy a 914 or two every year for what they spend.

37) You can never have enough horsepower
38) There is a big difference between early and late shifter linkages.
39) The rust is always worse than you originally thought
40) 914 restoratioin and the tools to do it are more expensive than a drug habbit.

38a) there is also a huge difference in a shift linkage with good bushings and 1 with bad bushings...
41) if you see a car that has been converted to square headlights, don't buy it
42) SUVs and large cars DO have the right of way! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

43) The other car is faster unless your car is a 6-conversion in which case the other car is cheaper.

THE HARD WAY. PUT A BATTERY CUTOFF SWITCH IN YOUR CAR( THE KIND WITH THE REMOVABLE KEY). HIDE IT WHEN YOU'RE NOT DRIVING THE CAR.
