Looking for a 1973 or 1974 914, phoenix red, 2.0L fuel injected clean car. i live on the east coast -- MD/DE/VA would be easiest but I will travel for the right car
Phoenix red is just my dream car, will take any color

This '73 2.0L in Bahia red (not Phoenix red) was for sale until recently than the owner took it off the market. You can probably send him a PM to see if he's still has it. Here are two threads about the car....I believe the car is currently in Canada. I think the owner was asking less than $20K.

There's also this one for sale on EBay at Dick Barbour's in Georgia for sale. It's not cheap at $25K but it's a '73 2.0L in Phoenix Red.

The 73 Bahia red car is still for sale on Pelican Parts.

The owner removed it from this forum because people were just being mean. I don't blame him a all, it looks like a nice car.

I was in the area last Christmas but couldn't escape to go see it.

Good luck with the search.

Welcome and be patient. The right car will come along.

The best thing to do is read all you can to learn what to look out for when you find a potential purchase. The more informed you are about all of the issues these cars can have the easier it will be to recognize a true car from one that has had bondo and a cheap coat of paint put on it just to move it on to someone else. Cheers.

I have a 73 Phoenix Red 2.0 in Dublin CA. I am going to post it on the site this evening, and I will include some images and details in this thread as well. Good running FI car, I just had hip replacement surgery so getting in and out of it has become a challenge.

Regardless, good luck in your search!
