那些年，我們一起迷過的平民跑車

大眾-保時捷914

????早在大眾（Volkswagen）與保時捷（Porsche）合并之前四十年，兩家公司就聯手研發了這款中置引擎的敞篷跑車。當時無論是大眾還是保時捷之前都沒有生產過這么古怪的汽車。它于1969年問世，1976年停產，它的長軸距在轉彎時提供了非同一般的穩定性，但四缸版的發動機只能泵出80匹馬力，略顯不給力——要從靜止加速到時速62英里需要13秒。后來兩家公司因為營銷協議的問題分道揚鑣了，914跑車也很快淡出了人們的視線。如今一輛914老爺車只需3,000美元。

VW-Porsche 914

????Four decades before they finally decided to join forces, Volkswagen and Porsche collaborated on this mid-engined, targa-topped roadster that was one of the strangest cars either company ever produced. Built from 1969 to 1976, the 914's wide track provided unusual stability in cornering, but the 80 horsepower that the four-cylinder version put out made it a bit of a slug -- getting to 62 mph required 13 seconds. The two companies feuded over marketing arrangements, and the 914 quickly sank from view. Used models today go for as little as $3,000.
