Per NADA for (standard - no options) 1974 Porsche 914 2.0 http://www.nadaguides.com/Classic-Cars/197...arga-2-0/Values
Original MSRP: $6,050 Low Retail: $14,850 Average Retail: $17,500 High Retail: $24,300 And that's not for an LE, which is the rarest 914 production car ever made. Ironically, when available, the LE (all were fully loaded) cost LESS than a regular 1974 2.0 fully loaded. The Dealer Label for my LE shows Original MSRP of $6,724.50 Undercoating ($35) and "New Car Preperation" ($100) came to $6,859.50 w/o tax/tag/title fees. I would price a fully restored LE substantially more over a fully restored/loaded 1974 2.0. And Creamsicles even more because there's half as many of those on the road than Bumblebees, so they're even more rare. But still, they are all highly valued and i think should be kept 100% completely OG. Mods are for standards. These are rare and should be kept as original as possible. Just my opinion. |

I had originally asked about real world prices but haven't seen one in a bit. While it appears many are willing to ask "substantially" higher prices for LEs vs similar non LE model but as buyer I think the question is "anyone willing to pay a substantial premium"? I am not, especially when we have recently seen a handful of sub 60K mile 2.0s with all the goodies barely breaking into the $teens.
As with many collectables highest power options usually bring the highest prices. Not sure why stripes and paint, in many cases which are no longer even present deserves even a modest premium. Some seem to acknowledge this by considering sales only if offered "silly" money. So many try to point out the rarity, but rarely does rarity alone drive premium prices. Which is why i feel the 6s will always bring more dollars than these particular LEs no matter how much one beats the rarer drum.
