Hi everyone,
My 914-6 is now live on BAT: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1970-porsche-914-6-29/ If anyone has any suggestions for the listing or can provide input if you have seen the car, please do so. I think this post is ok here as it's not technically an ad, but if not please just remove it. What a crazy week to start an auction?!?! Thanks! -Steve |

Nit-pickers aside (said as someone who is as nit-picky as anyone...), this 6 is nicer, more correct, and more desirable (to me) than some of the 6s that have gone to six figures on BaT.
Color, overall look, wheels, and seller all seem spot on to me. Sure, he's an enthusiastic driver and uses the car—but any concern about the hard launch would be addressed in the 901 and the drive shafts....a small amount of $ against the price this is likely to go to. And the runs to redline (the engine's, not the tach's) are encouraging to me rather than discouraging. That's what these cars were made to do. And I'd definitely take this 914-6 over one that has sat and needs everything and every seal to be gone through. But that's just me. As for the concours concerns, they can be easily rectified, it looks like—but the deleted U.S. side markers, Euro lenses, Euro driving lights, steering wheel, etc sum it up for me: Incorrect, but great calls that would add to my enjoyment of the car. There are enough perfect examples out there to compete for 100 points. This one looks like a super nice driver, which is my favorite kind of car. And Irish remains one of my favorite colors on the 914... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) |
