Based on my informal observation of 914-6 sales prices over the last 5 years, I believe the current color has more to do with the price than originality. Silver, Signal Orange, Tangerine and Yellow cars original or not sell for 10-15k more than Irish Green and Light Ivory cars. Rarer colors also sell well, but there isn't enough data to call it a trend. Numbers matching cars also sell well. Given the cost to repaint, a car in the color you like, original or not, is worth a lot to people.

I believe the color has nothing to do with the price of a 914-6 car.... there are too few of them available for the color to affect the price. |

With so many of the survivors getting flares, big non-original engines, or race treatment, any un-molested example will continue to hold it's own as far as value and continue to rise accordingly. These cars are elite and get high wow factor when you drive or show one. I thought there was a "bubble about to burst" when nice examples were selling for $12K in the mid 90's |
