Was having a beer with Scott from Renegade Hybrids yesterday....he attended and 914/911 fun run in the rain. He was driving a 914 with an 8 in it,,,,wicked fast. Fun to play with and gets a lot of looks. He went past me in a straight line and pulled well. I would like to think in the lighter car and all that hp, that he would be a spinner in the curves....did not have a chance to play much, mucho rain, Mulholland Canyon, long drops to the valley below and I was driving with a passenger.
But I like the sound of my flat six. As a matter of fact, I had to look hard to find a sport muffler that was quiet enough to not drown out the engine sound.
8s have their place, but next to my kids...I love my flat six best.
