Really? Someone had a bumblebee and decided that a quick respray of the exterior in white was a good idea? SMH
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Porsche-914-Limite...em=381461574997 That aside, it appears that it could be a decent deal especially if someone wanted to put it back to it's original bumble bee goodness. Buy the rusted out one in the classifieds for some of the parts, like the correct front spoiler... |

Wow $16500 for a car needs paint and repair to fix the door gaps. Also not 100% sure the front valance is OEM, would need to see the ends to verify. Not saying it is not a good car, just not $16.5K in my book.

Also seller has COA on order and buyer can return the car if it is not a confirmed Can Am car. |

Assuming it is an LE, assuming the engine work described was done, say in the last 10K miles who knows how many years, assuming the 40K miles is true +-100%. What would the car be worth if it didn't need to be repainted?
