I have been a hobbyist sports car collector for about the past 20 years since I bought my first '67 911 in 1984 and was wondering if any of the board members have done an assessment of the what the future holds for the 914? What, if any, has the historical (past 5 years) appreciation been - has it even kept up with inflation? At some point they have to begin increasing - don't they?

You are not going to have people paying more for a 76 914 than they are for a 75 914. The 76 is Porsche factory built, no VW markings on the car. I feel that the 76 is a rare car. Personally I don't think the upper price point cars are going to be that plentiful, and when one is available you had better buy it and treat as a collector car, garage it, drive it.
I said this when I first got involved with the 914 I knew this was going to go the way of the 356. All of the 914s that are cutup just help to increase the value of those still on the streets. Keep cutting, one day you will look back and say, "I remember when"
Jeff I like your valuation table. I think the point system should be more even. As said everything can be restored to perfect conditon, just not "original".
