I also in my opinion don't believe in price differences in Real sixes relating to what year they were made. Granted that they made more in 70 than 71 and then less in 72. It is now about availability and condition. Then price. I think that they made more in 70 means there are more original owners who would want their old cars back and may now be in a financial position to do so.

What drives the price up (and yes I have bid on this car over 22) is collectors who buy rarity and really don't even care about actually driving the car. Just want something rare in their garage that they can keep and resell at a later date for as much or more money! Like the guy in Asheville who recently purchased the 914-6 gt on the front cover of Brett's 914 restorer's guide. He just stored the car away and is not driving it! Figured it was a small numbers made car and cheap compared to other Porsche factory racing cars so bought it!


Back in the early 90's I bought six no 9142430240 because it was the so called last one made and paid back then 25 grand when all of the rest were going for 10 thousand!
You are right, if you want a great 914-6 to drive paying excessively for a 71 or 72 is stupid
