i dont know what model it was.. was a boxster sitting at a used car lot. Maybe my expectations of a porsche were too high, but it looked and felt cheap compared to the s2000 i was driving at the time.Originally Posted by simontibbett

Congrats!! manual!!
You drove a 2.5/2.7 tiptronic, test drive a manual S (3.2), there's a 30-45hp gap between the S, non-S. IIRC some of the later 986 models have glass rear windows.Originally Posted by Sinfix_15
x2...trust me, drive an S and you will be in love.Originally Posted by _Christian_
I would rock a Boxster.. I will have no other makes.. I can't own anything else..
^I'm really starting to feel how you feel, its amazing.

I think most German cars are like that, Porsches are by far the scariest..lol. I take it you haven't REALLY pushed it yet.Originally Posted by umairejaz
Scary? Hell you drive a short wheelbase Miata - what could be scarier than that! Ok that's a generalization but you know...Originally Posted by simontibbett
Not anymore.Originally Posted by Atlblkz06
Got rid of the Miata a while back for a Porsche 914, and then have been around the world, now own another E30.
But yeah, Miatas aren't that bad as long as you're real smooth, Porsche's like to become tail happy with no notice lol.

The only P car I've ever driven is a 996 turbo (~2000 415HP). I didnt get to push it but the ride was really awesome and it felt bad ass.Originally Posted by simontibbett
914? Nice car! Yea they're weird but I like em very much. Any plans?![]()
I'd love to drive a turbo, I plan to own one.

im in love with the gas gauge, 2/4 a tank of gas, 4/4 a tank of gas, europeans rock!
I ended up selling it, I traded the Miata for it, and the motor basically took a crap three days later. Didn't have the time or money to rebuild it as I didn't have a DD.Originally Posted by Atlblkz06
It was nice though, cleanest 914 I've seen not in a show, no real rust, interior was real clean, etc.
Turbo or not...who cares lol

I do wish it was a crazy color though, my M3 got far more looks :facepalm:

Congratulations! That's my least favorite bodystyle, but I think the 4S is definitely the one to get if you're not shooting for a GT model just yet. Nice car man.![]()
I'm jealous. ; D Very nice ride!
