So...are we starting to see the 914 prices rise?, Or is this another one of of those, "Not this sh!t, again" threads? Options

While I realize that price increases for any sports car is seasonal, are we seeing a long awaited bump?

Looking at the recent selling prices of cars, it looks like the prices for nice solid cars are rising. Not only are the super nice, show quality cars gaining ground, the nice solid cars appear to be gaining ground as well. In addition, the number of solid cars available for sale seems to be unusually low lately.

Obviously, seasonal impact, early Porsche, and 914/6 prices are having an affect...I just wonder if 914 prices will hold or even gain ground?

When I bought my 71, it was prebasturdized with a 2 liter four with fake Fuchs. I decided to take it to what I wanted and added a 3.0, side shift, 5 lugs set up and big brakes. Lots of other details were ultimately improved. I was offered 30K for it after it was 90% done. Being compulsive and it still needed the oil cooler and a few other things I didn't sell. I was rather surprised that the money was offered so easily for a car who looks rather stock but is pretty heavily modified.

The car will never pull the dollars of an original 6 but as a resto-mod it will still fetch enough to pay for itself. This goes to show that there are people out there looking for nice 914s and willing to pay good coin for the right car.
