Sad 914

1975 Porsche Classic!

I don't mean to offend anyone here, but this car made me laugh a bit.

is that a Beach Boys car or whatever they are called?
I have had a few 914's in various states from stock to Chalon kits and I just like to think that Porsche got it right the first time....but I have to admit ...I liked my Chalon car...this car isn't working for me

Silly idea to make a 914 look like a Miata .

Can it be reversed? Customizing gone wrong.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.

Ad says it's a 1978. Must be a limited production one-off model by the factory.
