What am I missing? It seems not even a year or two ago, these cars and there parts were very reasonably priced. Now, it looks as though they are going for double. Any particular reason?

Somebody here posted a ling to a car magazine best list recently, the 10 best affordable sports cars or something like that. They said "name another Le Mans class winner that you can buy a running registered car for $1500.00." You probably can't buy anything that you'd want in a 914 for that kind of money anymore but I think they're still about the best sports car value on the planet. Let's say 5K. You can't get a running Ferrari for that. You can get a BMW but not one that will live through the weekend at a track. Not many do even if they're newer. Nor will a 5K Lotus or a Triumph. Sure you can pull out a Honda Del Sol for 5K that might live through a weekend at Willow Springs, but it's front wheel drive for God's sake. How about a Camaro or a Mustang. Neither is a sports car in my book. Point & squirt at best. How about a 5K Corvette? It's a legitimate sports car, probably your best chance in this scenario.
So what else is there of similar price that can smoke a decent 914 at the track that is still cool? |
