Picking upon a recent thread, how much is a Perfect, Mint Concours level 914/4 car worth, if you could even find such a car to purchase?
I have seen Concours-winning, fully-restored 914/6 cars go for $20-25K, which seems about right, but I never hear anything about a 914/4 in similar condition. This is the car I mean: 73-74 2.0L, with all accessories *Perfect, Mint, Concours winning condition *No PO 'upgrades' *Fully restored or original in every way *NO RUST ANYWHERE My guess is it would take the following to make such a car, if you do most of the disassembly/reassembly work yourself: 5K Good original sound, complete car, needing restoration 4K Engine/trans rebuild 2K Wheels/tires/brakes/suspension restoration 4K Paint/bodywork 2K Plating/new exterior trim 2K New uphostery/interior 2K Misc weatherstripping/top refurb/missing parts 20-22K Total My guess is this car might sell somewhere in the $12-15K range. What would you pay as a buyer? |

914s are worth what people are willing to pay, or sell them for.
It seems like seeing that older couple willing to part with their cherry, original owner, '74 2.0 is getting farther away. As far as value? Depends on who's buying. I think we will see clean cars go for more and more over the next few years. Prices seem to be climbing. As far as driving, I like driving both my modified 914 and my stock 914. Both cars have a unique personality. The stock one is due for some restoration work, but you will never see it for sale. $100K wouldn't get it from me because you can't put a value on a car that means something to you. I may upgrade from the 8 track though. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) |
