Love this car. So classic.

I love classic Porsches but not so much the new ones. I respect the new ones, but don't lust after them. The Cayman comes close as do the GT2 and GT3.

I would also love a 904, 914-6 (or 914-8 yes, there is one in the museum!) or a simple late 70's 911 SC (Guards Red, or Black, with Fuchs alloys) with the tea-tray spoiler.

Poormans Porsche. Never liked them. There are a few that have some sweet engine swaps and are fast as shit. I can respect that, but no fuckin way is it on my list of favs.

Exactly. It was the WORST Porsche development platform EVER to be made.

I can accept that some people like them and did engine swaps on them, but any proper Porschephile would prefer the 914 to be wiped from the annals of the their history.

LOL

Ok, fair play on the poor mans Porsche, BUT! The 914 didn't have just a Beetle motor, and it was air-cooled and handled well.

The bastard of the bunch was the shitty 928 which had a VW Rabbit / Gold lump and tacky styles. The 944 was badass but even true Porsche nutters don't acknowledge it's existence because it was front engined and cooled with water

The 968 was also quick, but quite fat and heavy. It only came in auto in Canada (and maybe the US). The 968 ClubSport's were super quick, but again, not a proper Porsche.

For me, the missing element of cheating death will always leave the nutty ones (old 911 Turbo, Kremer K3 etc) on a higher pedestal than the "tame" ones that handle well. The GT2 (and any other 911) will still bite you if you drive it poorly. you don't often argue with Newtonian physics and win.

If by handled well you mean it handles like a boat, then yes it handled "well," but otherwise it handled like shit, was grossly underpowered, and had the ugliest body style ever.

The 928 was actually quite a lot better than the 914.

So many to choose from. Surprised to see so many Porsche fans considering everyone usually jumps on the Ferrari/Lambo bandwagon.

One of my favorites is still the BMW E39 M5



I wouldn't mind a Porsche 997 revision 2 Turbo, either...

Ya that m5 is one of the sickest. The new one has grown on me so much though.
