I know how you must feel. No toy yet for you! (yet)

Back in a different era I went to a dealer to order my dream car a 1974 914 2.0. I knew exactly what I wanted. I knew way more than any of the salesmen about it. Back in those days Porsche dealers were VW dealers primarily and sold Porsches as a side.

Anyway I ordered my Olympia Blue, 74 2.0 with appearance package, sway bars and so on. 100% My car. They said it would be in within a month. It took them 6 months to get me the car. They wanted to sell me several 914s on the lot. I did not bite. I drove the wheels off of their VW Rabbit loaner during the wait. It took the keys Friday, September 13th 1974 at 12:30 PM. I brought it back to them Monday morning for the 600 mile 1st oil change & service.

Your car will come in and it will be even more special!
