    Mitch, can you fit into one of those?

    I had a 914. Mitch would fit in without a problem.

    Nice car. I’m wondering how the performance would suffer in corners. They were very high performance for their lousy motors since they were very nicely balanced.

    A 914. The twisty mountain roads of southern California, the sunshine on the beach. T-top and tricked out stereo. Good times, man, good times.

    Porsche built cars for German drivers, and double-jointed mechanics.

    If I put the seat all the way back in my 911, I could barely touch the pedals.

    I’ve only sat in 2 cars where having the seat all the way back was too far back for my 6’2″ frame. A mid 90s Mercedes 500SEL and a 2006 Chrysler (DaimlerChrysler) 300C.

    Just sayin…

    My 6’6″ uncle had plenty of room in in 914. The seating position is interesting: your legs are nearly straight out, and your butt is about 8″ off the pavement.
