Other than being PINK, it's pretty cool

I think it's more like "deep salmon" otherwise known as:

Looks like Bahia Red to me, nice car and fairly well done. I am not familiar with Patrick mounts but with solids at both ends it must vibrate a bit. At first I thought it needed front flares but on second look maybe not. Any guesses at the reserve? Could be a buy at the right price. $2K to ship west however.

Replace all the Patrick CRAP and it's a solid ride....I can live with the color.

Is it a conCoors winning car?
Looks like it's in the top 1% of 914's to me.

Not really anything to bash...

Great description. Very detailed. Sounds like a standup guy.

Nice car.

A 2.2... was that a good motor? I have no clue when it comes to 911 stuff.

Could be a great car at the right price.

The only thing I can spot that's wrong with it is........................


























































It ain't mine.

Now that is a understatement.

I'm working on a project less than 20 miles from where the car is located at in WV. could do a PPI if someone is interested.

I agree it sounds promising, and the seller sounds honest. The only thing I noticed is the 10.5 to 1 compression ratio. Normally, people say that that anything above 10 to 1 requires twin plugs, which this car does not appear to have. It does appear to have MFI, which is cool.

Earl Snibes to the rescue.. Bahia red is a great color... his camera is abit off.
Photonoob fix. Awesome description.

I like it, only thing I would want different would be front flares to match, or a narrow body car. the color is kewl.

looks like a decent car..lots of money put into it....glad I saw it, cause now that I've seen a 914 with only the rear GT flares installed I've changed my mind on that idea
