An "ok" car that had let's say lots of patina.

Selling for $95k plus the BaT buyer's fee of 5% puts the sales price at nearly $100k.

Pretty strong for this car.
Car definitely looks great from 10' away.

In an odd way, perhaps it's good for all of us (cars are finally fetching huge money) and yes it makes me think of selling at least one of them also, perhaps my big 6 (light years above the blue BAT GT in fit, finish and components), keeping the 4 that drew me into 914's in the first place...

In another way I think it's going to hurt the community and the 914 "world" as we know it as prices on (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) cars start fetching absurd money, the entire 914 crowd will shift, and all of the CSOB's will loose their collective minds over it.

I'd always embraced the "rat bastard" view of the 914 amongst the pinky lifting 911 crowd and liked that I was the odd man out.

I remember when you could find a pretty nice early 911 here in San Diego for under $10k all day long and it wasn't that long ago, perhaps 914's are finally going the same way, perhaps we're at the end of an era (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
