Hi Everyone,
I'm new to 914's and looking to start a GT project at some point. Right now, I want to learn as much as I can before I go down the path. Over the past few days, I've seen the following two 914-6 GT Tribute cars for sale. They both seem to be equally great cars, and I'm trying to figure out which is the "better" car.... 1975 914-6 GT Tribute 1970 914-6 GT Tribute Based on my limited experience, the fact that the blue car's chassis is an original 914-6 and it has a 3.0 liter engine makes it more desirable. Also, the color...Mexico Blue is one of my favorites. I know many aspects of what makes a car "better" is subjective, but I just wanted to start a discussion and get different perspectives from those who are more experienced so I can fill in my knowledge gaps. Looking forward to hearing different viewpoints...thanks! |
