IN ONBY CRAIG PAULLAs I R¡N4eLeo ABour LAST MoNTH,MY NEWEST TOY IS A SLIGHTLY MOD-IFIED 9L4_6. AT THAT PoINT, IWAS SO ENTHRALLED BY OWNERSHIPTHAT I ToRcoT ABoUT MY TRUSTYTWO LITER, SITTING BACK IN THEGARAGE, FORGOTTEN FOR ALMOST AMONTH.

Well, I'M suRE You ALL NorrcED,IN THE MIDDLE oF FeeRueRv (FEB-RUARY?) IT STARTED GETTING WARM.Nor sUPER wARM, oF couRSE, BUTWARM ENoUGH FoR PoRscne-LIKETHOUGHTS TO BE RUNNING THROUGHMY HEAD. VT,ne¡¡eVER POSS I BLE ,rdH I cH wASN I T oFTEN eNoucn, I HADTHE r16rr our FoR A spIN, A WASHAND BAcK INTo RETIREMENT. BUTTHIS TIME I DEcIDED IT WAS THERIGHT MOMENT TO START CLEANINGON MY TWO LITER IN PREPARATIONFOR SELLING IT. ( INCIDENTALLY,IN CASE ANYONE OUT THERE IS IN-TERESTED, ITrs A t973 MRRRTnoNBuue MEtRulI c BEAUTv, AND I ' M

LETTING IT GO FOR $5,000. )

Frnsr oFF, AFTER A MoNTH oF srr-TING, IT IdoULDNIT START, AS MYNEW BATTERY WAS DEADER THAN THEPRoVERBIAL oooRTNoa. I PERSoNAL-LY THINK IT WAS TIRED OF BEINGSNUBBED By My r16rr. ONcE I corIT STARTED, WARMED UP AND RUNNING

nowevER, I REcETvED A vERy PLEAS-ANT SENSATIoN. Jusr BEcAUSE rrDIDN'T NAVC A 6 CYLINDER PORSCNEENGINE TUCKED BEHIND THE PASSEN-GER coMPARTMENT DIDN,T RENDER ITUNENJOYABLE TO DRIVE¡ NOT A BIT.TN FAcT, THERE'S AN AWFUL LoT ToBE SAID FOR THE LATE MODEL 4cYLTNDER 9 14 ts, ESPEcIALLy rHETWo LITERS. IN cAsE You DoN'TKNOW I/VHAT I'¡¡ T¡TTINE ABOUT,READ ON.

I97O IVAS THE FIRST PRODUCTIONYEAR FoR THE PoRScHE 914. AsANYONE CAN TELL YOU, THE FIRSTYEAR OF PRODUCTION FOR ANYTHINGIS USUALLY NOT THE BEST (EVENPoRscne cAN LEARN FRoM ExpER-IENCE). AS SUCH, THE TWO LITERIS TECHNICALLY A MORE SOUND CARTHAN THE r'6rr. Ir CAME srAND-ARD (AT LEAST WHEN I eouenl IT)WITH FRONT AND REAR SWAY BARS, ASHIFTER THAT SHIFTS, A HEATERWITH AN ELECTRIC BLOWER, ANDOTHER NIFTY INNOVATIONS, INCLUD-ING SoUNDPRooFING. YoU MAYTHINK THIS IS ALL PETTY, BUTBELIEVE ME, Ï uTss THoSE SWAYBARS AT HIGH SPEEDS. IT ALSo ISNoWHERE NEAR AS SLoW AS I neMEM-BERED IT. TnRT TWo LITER ENGINE,WITH 91 HORSEPOWER, IS MORE THANENOUGH FOR THE CAR.

Tne 9t4-6, oN THE orHER HAND,AND MII.üE IN PARTICULAR, HAS ALOT MORE HORSEPOWER, AN OLDERSUSPENSION DESIGN, A SHIFTERTHAT GOES SEVEN DIFFERENT WAYSGETTING INTO zND GEAR ( IN CASEYou nRVeN't cuesseo, I cANrTSTAND THE SHIFTING IN THAT CAR)WINDOW SEALS THAT LEAK LIKE ASIEVE wHEN YoU'RE WASHING THECAR, AND OTHER NOTICEABLE SHORT-COMINGS.

BY NOì^', YOU'RE PROBABLY WONDER-ING WHAT IT IS I'IvI GETTING AT.BRSTcALLY, I rHINK THAT THE gt4IS ONE OF THE NEATEST CARS EVERPRoDUcED ( ALTHoUcH I '¡,t t<NowN ToBE PREJUDICED ON THE SUBJECT).HevrNc DRIvEN BorH BASIc rypEsoF 914's, I wouLD HAVE To sAyTHAT I lrre 'EM aorH. I srN-CERELY WISH I oToN'T HAVE ToSELL THE TWo uTTeR. I KEEP BUY-ING LOTTERY TICKETS, HOPING TOWIN ENoUGH. Iru ANY EVENT,EITHER CAR IS A SATISFACTORYFORM OF TRANSPORTATION FOR THEPoRsc¡e ENTHUSIAST.
