Has anyone actually bought a 914 off of eBay for a decent price?
I looked at this car in person before it was listed on eVilbay: http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...3&category=2030 The guy was asking $3100 (Canadian). It didn't run (likely bad fuel injection problems), there were rust holes in all the usual places, and many other problems. It just sold for $4700 (Canadian), probably to somebody who didn't get a chance to look at the car. Is it even worth shopping cars on eBay? |

I've discovered one really nice thing nice about the 914 community... there is usally someone here willing to check out cars for you if it's within a decent driving distance.
I bought my current project car sight unseen out in Phoenix Arizona. Saw the car in the AutoTrader. Gerard Rodriguez checked it out for me and gave me the thumbs up. I had it shipped. If there's a car and you're interested, post a message here and someone can check it out. Here's my car... Attached thumbnail(s) |
