Smashed up my 914 today :(

Hit an Altima leaving a red light. She slammed on the brakes in front of me. Looks like I got some work to do....

This time around put some Porterfield pads on the car. There is no reason the 914 can not out stop ANYTHING on the road today.

Haha, it wasn't a pad issue. It was the loose nut behind the steering wheel. I just didn't hit the pedal.
