I'm trying to comprehend why this hasn't sold. A 914/6 is the current fad and the prices have gone stupid, and yet, here we have a 914/6 engine and transaxle for $12.5 and no takers (needs to be gone thru, maybe I just answered my own question). This is the second time it's been at auction.
Even fake well done 914/6's bring good money (not the half arse kind, the good kind), the thought out kind, with tasteful design. So please provide your well thought out opinions, help me understand why this has not sold. Is it because a 3.2 is soooo much better? https://www.ebay.com/itm/PORSCHE-914-6-FACT...6S8&vxp=mtr |

cal44 it is considered a "core unit",as mentioned it has a limited market, these motors were de-rated as not upset sales of the 911...
I'am sure a company like PMS wouldn't be selling a "junker" engine and box but the reality is big $$$ to recommisson,they most likely traded for little coin and as Mark mentioned its way overpriced. |
