Perfect era correct color for a 914.

Driving slow cars fast is more fun than driving fast cars slow

Really love your videos.  Great sound, no annoying music.  You only talk occasionally to say what needs to be said and otherwise allow the viewer to enjoy the ride.  Thank you!  :)

The simplest, most straight forward dashboard controls of just about any car ever. Beautiful simplicity.

I bought a 914/4 in 1973 with the only option a AM radio.  Owned it for 16 years and there wasn't a better car.  After getting rid of the Michelin tires and adding front and rear sway bars the lift throttle handling changed from dangerous to a tool to adjust your position in a corner.  I added aluminum wheels and Phoenix tires which were the hot tire of the day.  Later in it's life I had the engine worked on with bigger barrels and changed the fuel injection to Webers with velocity stacks.  Intake sound was amazing.  One of the best parts though was I could work on the car unlike today.  Later on I realized it was losing it's structure when I tried jacking up the left side and the car didn't move.  It was so hard to watch someone else drive it away.  I paid $4,500 for it and sold it for $5,500. Oh another plus was installing a short throw shifter.

The 2 liter flat six with Weber carbs is my favorite car/engine sound, ever. I grew up in a '71 911 with a tuned 2.2. Absolutely gorgeous sounds!

That was like riding with my dad 40yrs ago
He got a 911 when I was in junior high school
Thanks, memories 🙏🏿

I miss my 914. I had a cherry one back in the 90s.
Great car, daylied it for years. Very reliable

Can’t not like an old flat 6

I restored a 914 years ago inside and out, but this model was restored to a different level. Great cars. Remember they weigh just a bit over 2,000 lbs. Lightness is everything.

Such a great video on how a real 914-6 really sounds. The sound is incredible. You don't care about the 0-60 on a car like this. Only Porsche guys would really understand.

These backroads are beautiful and this car deserves to be in such a lovely setting. How much nicer than ugly endless freeways or strip mall hell.

Great color.

They're all proper Porsches! One can also argue the 356 roots as well being the "proper Porsche".

No words for this! I can't believe they made so good in the 70's

Man this things seems like such a blast to drive

A base 914 with a Subaru WRX engine would be awesome. It would be like a vintage Factory Five 818!

My first introduction to Porsche was in a 914. They’re wonderful cars.

There's something very charming about the 914-6. Very characterful. Love how the speedo just gives up under hard acceleration!
