Runs drives great. Recent rust fix including new engine shelf. Lots new, good compression, no smoke, very strong. Stainless Steel heaters work great.

I actually bumped the price up a little. I think I would be kicking myself later if someone lowballed me and I took anything less than what a decent 2.0FI car should be worth.

There's wiggle room in that $4200. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Heh, heh, I see that you bumped up the price on your previous post. Well, if my wife and I can find solid employment after the holiday's, and you're still trying to sell, I just might be knocking at your door.

There is something I would like to understand from any of the very knowledgable 914 folks here, and please, please know that I'm not trying to be a turd. A couple of comments here states that this is a very nice car and someone is going to get a good deal. Is it a very nice car because you have it at a great price, or because of the work you've done makes it better than new? What I see is a 914 that's not in original color (maybe it was repainted after an accident?), had some major rust issues, and driven daily in the rain. Then again, what the heck do I know. Again, Im not trying to be a turd and I apologize if I come across that way, but I'm just trying understand what constitutes this being a very nice car. I want to know what you guys know/see/think when you're looking at (or wanting to buy) this car.

I'm not that knowledgable when it comes to these cars other than to watch out for a few of the main trouble areas of rust. I had a 1975 2.0L about 20+ years ago, but owned it only for a short time. A couple of years ago, I recalled how much fun it was to drive, and now I'm hoping to own another. It also could be that I'm going through a midlife crisis.
