After owning early 911's for years I've decided to find a mint/excellent condition 914 to possibly purchase.....ideally a '73 2.0L. I've found a possble candidate that's for sale through a very reputable member here. The only issue.....it's a '74 with a 1.8L. Question......in the long run would I regret not waiting for a similar 2.0L to hit the market? Is the performance difference that noticeable between the two? Here's a photo of the 1.8L car in question. Any advice would be helpful....I'm all ears.

Hold out for a 2.0L as the 1.8L is pretty low on the HP department. Condition is always important but are you going to drive it or show it?

If you are planning on showing it then condition is it.
