Signal Orange 914-6 on eBay, Anyone know this car? Options

[Lavanaut]

Anyways....another REAL/6....here....
another real six...but original

Does anyone here know this car, or anything about it? VIN search came up with a sale last November at 18k euros. Car looked clean then too.

Let me know if you know more! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

That isn't a photo of the actual car for sale. This is an old Porsche factory picture taken from Brian Long's 914 & 914-6 book.

This six has sold a couple of times in the last year. The current owner purchased it in December 2007 and supposedly spent $7,000 on transmission work. I guess that's the price you pay when you have something done at a Porsche dealer. They probably had to fly in Dieter from Germany to work on a VW, I mean a Porsche this old.

I bid on the car before I realized it is the same car that has passed through a couple owners in a short period of time. Of course, my bid was in the early auction stage. Also, the reserve appears to be stupid high. I haven't seen the car in person, but I'm afraid of it since it keeps showing up for sale.

I could have bought this car about a year or so ago from Randall Yow for only $24,000.

If somebody here buys this car, I would like to know if it's as nice as it looks.

Good luck.
