One of the often overlooked Porsches. For sure not as mythical as a 911, but I am sure you can have some serious fun with it, and at a Posche meeting you'll probably look cooler than the avera 996 carrera owner ;) cool!

Definately cool. I like the way it looks and sounds. You dont' see them often, even though they aren't that rare.
I'd put one in my garage if I could afford it.

Cool for me - but just because there's the 914/6 version with the flat-6 engine of the 911. If there wasn't that engine, with the shitty 4-pot 2.0 and 1.8 VW engines... this car would be uncool. As for the looks - I've always liked it, with black Fuchs wheels, fat ass and lowered suspensions :love:

Dont forget the 916 with the all out 911 S engine in it with the fixed roof, now that car is subzero. But the standard 914 definately invokes a feeling to this day - kind of like a forefather to a lotus elise with its nimble handling and its low weight. Now where is that 914/8 owned by Ferdinand Piech! :twisted:


Cool.

I voted uncool but I could have been harder if it hasn't been a Porsche :?

Uncool, although it is a Porsche, it hasn't got the same appeal, specially with the VW engines.

No, who wants a Chevy small block when you can have a genuine 908 race motor. :wink:

Guys you really dont know how to vote.


THe cool wall is exactly about being that. Cool or not.

You are not supposed to look at the badge, or know the specs.

Its just the vibe that the car gives off when you look at it. Its a spontaneous thing.

The fact that you guys brought up the VW engine thing tottaly kills the purpose of this game.

it was my second car, and was just fine, even with the 1.8 litre. i love the look of the thing, and it attracted lots of attention in highschool, especially in a parking lot full of vw bugs and old muscle cars and such. lost something very immportant to me in that car.

subzero, without a doubt.

914/6 is awesome. Ive seen a stock one race. Mid-engined and fairly light.
Surprisingly close to lightweight 911s
A very misaligned car.
Not the prettiest, but cool.

But I don't know much about this car. At least I know it doesn't look bad at all :P

Wrong. It is entirely about the specs/features and the wankers who might buy them.

A Corvette might be a fun car to drive but it is uncool because of the morons who own them. Although I could get over the stigma with a new ZR1.

nnnn... no. As much as I like Porsches, this just isn't cool. Porsches per se aren't very cool, and 914 is too much like the Mazda MX-5 and Toyota MR2. A good car, but I can't see it as cool. I don't imagine a cool guy in one of these.

I was going to post a reply, then I realised true ignorance will never learn... anything.

Yep - there's nothing cool about 914's ... at all...
