The interior is hideous, guessing once they got it home they too realized how bad it was and was embarrassed by their purchase.

Otherwise the car is badass.

Looks like a CAN CAN red cow exploded on the inside. Wow!

All the facebook car pages have been pasting this everywhere, lol.

After custom ordering that interior, the owner was probably not able to drive it because it gave him headaches!

It will get sold for a huge pile of cash and will continue to sit idle.

If I could afford the car, an immediate gutting of the interior would be required. But man would that be a great car if the interior was better looking!!

Look close at the pictures, the roll cage is wrapped in CanCan leather.

I actually like it. Red is bad ass for interior.

Re: any 914s like this....pretty much all of the 916s were the equivalent of this car.
Basically a 914/6 GT with fancy interior.

That car, as is, will appreciate in price way faster than an average one. Especially with almost no miles. It's an investment car. We have customers who look for the rare, limited production or one off factory cars. They do quite well with them even though it's not everyone's cup of tea. Who talks about a car with a black interior?

PMS did a 916 clone with all red interior.

I test drove an '84 911 with a Can Can red interior. As distasteful as it sounds, it was really badass!

Sure, swap the red out. You might as well toss $500,000 on the grill and light it up because you would lose at least that much in value on the car.

A car like this is worth a lot more in completely original shape.

Hmmm. Do you think if I coated my car in cosmoline it would hide the imperfections. Now where does one go to buy cosmoline anymore?

Kidding aside, great car. Gaudy or not it needs to stay just the way it was produced.
