When the truck tires are twice the height of your car and they are moving at 70mph on all sides of you....it's scary. Shortest (height) car I've owned.

According to wikipedia, a 914 is 48.4" tall. Even lowered, I wouldn't think it would be much lower. I had 2 miatas, and they were both supposed to be the same height. One was lowered a bit, so maybe as low as 47" on that one. I once chatted with a guy that drove a Beck 550 (40" tall) from Houston to somewhere is Louisiana on I10 (200-250 miles or so). He said that was a bit uncomfortable.
