Still don't understand what's wrong with idling the car - just keeping it in the garage and not doing anything with it. I have the feeling that all air cooled Porsche stuff is rising in price steeply these days. My 993 hasn't gotten a lot of miles of late, being down for trans rebuild and myself getting "distracted" with a new job. But it sure beats selling it and starting over with a pig in a poke in a couple years down the road.
Of course, if you were really tired of your 914 and you want a 911 soon, we understand.
