    2 actually mid vs rear engine and the 914 has bigger valved heads. Oh and a 3rd the 914 parts are more expensive because it says Porsche

    The Mini slammed the poor Pacer 12 to 0. The 914 takes the win over a beautiful VW KG 9 to 3.

    Last set for this round.

    One more chance for the MoM VW guys

    If that was an earlier model RX7 it would get my vote. The trouble I have is the styling is too much like a 924, never cared for that one.

    So it is the GTI that would become a dual purpose rally car track toy in my hands.... Says the car guy that is me. :D

    I like the GTU, but it's not special enough: normally aspirated, some lightness added. Meh.

    GTI!
