(edit update) changing this to for sale. 944 - $4500. 250 - $2500

So this is my first post. I've been lurking for a while and registered the other day. A while back I spoke to a fellow by the name of "duc" who was selling a 914 over in the pdx area. Cool guy, knew his stuff. Was selling a GORGEOUS Orange 914. Unfortunately the timing wasn't right, and I just couldn't make up my mind.

I just moved into a house not long ago and have a lot of vehicles. A long time ago I thought that was great. However, I am using many of them less and less. I'm wanting to downsize my toy amount somewhat and just make it easier on myself. I could go buy one, but the wife knows that if I do that and have it sitting around, she knows I'll let it grow on me and I won't sell something else.... accumulating another vehicles (guess she knows me too well... darn it).

I'm looking to trade out my 84' 944 and my 2005 Ninja 250R for a nice 914, or a 911 (that is mechanically sound, maybe needs paint or cosmetics). The 944 is my daily, and is very reliable. So If I do go through with such a trade, it would have to be a reliable car for daily driving.

The 944 has been mechanically sound and fit as a fiddle. I have meticulously worked on it and repaired everything on it myself, and also purchased specialty tools for the timing belt and balance shaft belt (which would come with the car of course). Though it'll eventually need paint, it does shine up, but has cracks here and there and some oddities. Mechanically it's sound as can be.

The 250 was bought new off the showroom floor, has also been cared for by yours truly, also have the valve adjustment tool (comes with the bike of course) with less than 10k on it.

I like the 914, and really want to get into the air cooled side of Porsche. At the same time figured it would be a good opportunity for someone who maybe wants to get into the water cooled side, and also interested in motorcycles. I have a 924 being built as a trackday car, so it won't break my heart too much to let go of the 944.

Figured I'd post on here as I know this is "an odd one" but there might be someone out there crazy like me.
