PCA Potomocan James Pena’s 1975 Porsche 914 - on an unforgettable 2-day roadtrip, weaving through the mountains of West Virginia! He shares “From the moment I fired up the flat 4 engine, the experience felt raw and alive - it’s distinctive growl echoing off the surrounding hills and, as the sun began to set, casting golden light across the ridges, the feeling of connection was complete.  I can’t imagine a better way to appreciate the 914 - its simplicity, its eagerness, and the joy of open-air motoring!
