Hey all.. it's been a long while since my last post - Since I'm thinkin' of selling my '72 914/4 2.0 on account of 1) moving to San Francisco proper and 2) having a hard time justifying my car hobby with my desires to be a good steward to the planet (somebody has to do it!), I've been poking around on evilbay for the going rate.
Is it just me, or have 914 values - for both fours and sixes, fallen markably in the past year? danke, -greg |

Boy, didn't think you could get more open minded than the home of submarine pilot Kennedy.
If you work from home, why not consider moving to North Hampton MA. Really nice town in a 5 college area. Plenty of free thinking going on and very nice scenery too. |

San Francisco is a major metropolitan area -- the two are hardly comparable. Doesn't mean part of me doesn't wish I still lived in NoHo from time to time, or elsewhere in the Happy Valley (Pioneer Valley / Connecticut River Valley). Regarding the $20k '71 914-4, I'm curious how you get a full concours winner with the wrong, non-original motor in it (2.0l TIV in a '71?), a Nardi wheel and an Optima battery... |

I suspect that it would score well in the performance class in Parade. I agree that it will be interesting to see if it stays sold, or if we see it relisted in the future. Very nice car either way.
