FS 1974 1.8L $ 15900, 2nd owner 70 K orginal Options

[Laurent Z]

Hello everyone

I am very new to your world, the 914 world that is.
I have a 914 that i am trying to sell for the last 2 months on CL in the northwest but i keep having only scammers and BS offers. I am so tired of it. A friend told me to reach out people with same interest and passion.
I am going thru rough financial times right now and i need to sell my baby that i have for the last 5 years
I am the second owner (with paper to prove it) of a
1974 914 1.8L with 70 K miles
Phoenix red
No rust. No restoration but re-spray in the 80's.
Asking $ 15900. I really have no idea what the market is and even by looking at Nada or Edmund or KBB i feel its all over. I would love to have some feedback
I can provide more pics of course on request
I am located in the inland pacific northwest close to Spokane in Idaho though.

Thank you all for looking and your input.

I think I've run across your car on craigslist during my searches.

As was already mentioned, pictures pictures pictures! Of everything! This can lead to much more interest if everything looks good.

As for value, hagerty is often considered to be more accurate when it comes to vintage cars. Below is a screenshot of the values for a 1974 914 1.8L.



I'm sorry to hear of your financial situation forcing the sale, always makes it harder. If the car has no issues in the typical 914 areas, and you had time to find the right buyer, you could certainly get your asking price. But, if there is any sign of trouble in the "hell hole" or around the jack tubes and longitudinals and need cash now, you'll want to consider offers below asking or lower the price. Until the world can see more pictures, it's really difficult to determine actual value.

Thank you to all of you....as Mike in Munich says.....how did i stay out of your world for so long. It is the first time i get feedback so positive and intelligent.
I will definitely post more pics as you all suggested. This sunday should be sunny and she needs to get out .....cabin fever....winter has been too long for her and me as well.
Thanks again
