Porsche

There is no substitute

One thing we’ve learned to expect from racing is the unexpected. Mile after grueling mile can tell you a lot about how well a car handles. Or how badly For instance, after years of racing mid-engine Porsches we learned that an engine in the middle makes a car extremely maneuverable.

Let’s you corner easily. Decelerate evenly So we put a lot of what we learned at the track into a mid engined Porsche for the street. The 914 2.0 liter. But beyond its many track features, the thing you’ll probably like most about the 914 is that it’s just plain fun to drive For one thing. it’s very peppy. It goes from 0-60 in 11 seconds. Cruises all day at autobahn speeds. Its lightweight. air-cooled engine can’t boil over or freeze up It comes with a five-speed gear box.

Rack-and-pinion steering.4-wheel independent suspension. Disc brakes on all four wheels. And there’s electronic fuel injection to feed the powerful 2.0 liter engine the exact amount of gas it needs at all times. It does its job so well that the 914 gets 20 miles per gallon*in the city 30 miles per gallon*on the highway.

Taking your fun along is easy, because the 914 has two trunks. Together there is a total 13.1 cu. ft. of space And to let in the sun, a removable fiberglass roof that stores in the back trunk. We built our 2-seater in the classic sports car tradition but a departure from 2-seater tradition is the fact that you don’t need a shoehorn to wedge yourself in and out.

For comfort from every angle, the 914 has seats that slide back and forth. and tilt to four positions. There’s a padded dash with large tachometer, and the steering wheel has the turn signal switch, horn. high beam control and windshield washer/wiper switch right on it.
