Got my COA today, after 4 months (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) , & I thought it posed some interesting questions. COA said I have white fog lights & velour trunk carpeting. Did 914s come w/ yellow fog lights? What on earth is velour trunk carpeting?

what are the true advantages of having a COA? besides being able to see how the car came from the factory (and not always)? -JON

J,
Someday, having matching #s (as valued by 356 and Corvette folks), original code # paint (as indicated by Karmann plate), and having OEM equipment (hopefully correct on the CoA) will increase the desirability and perhaps enhance the value of an authenticated 914.
For those with /6, Subie or V-8 transplants, track cars (w/o recognized racing heritage or provenance), and otherwise far-from-original presentation, the CoA matters little.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) , especially for my LE. Helps prove she's an LE, prove she came w/ a cinnamon interior & show enough owner concern for the car that I bothered to spend a whole bunch of $ to prove it.
