It's over the edge alright. If you knew it was a 914LE would you view it differently?

Nope. Not my style at all. But Florida, gold chains, unbuttoned shirt, fits perfectly.

This car was on here before. I think someone was saying it was a being used to demo multiple accessories? Only other explanation is insanity.

Assuming there is a Porsche Crest on the driver's side door speaker grill (like seen on the passenger side) I count the name "Porsche" on the car at least 30 times. I don't know but that seems a little excessive.

Some spendy parts on that tub but the car looks to be pretty clean under all that. Someone should buy it, de-bling it and I bet they make money. It would likely be more valuable in Bumblebee trim when its all said and done.

Edit: Jeff, thanks for the correction that they are indeed real fuchs. I saw the black paint and assumed American Eagle rims without looking at them closer (flush bolts vs the eagle's recessed.) |

The wheels, unlike all the chest hair, are real.

Is there a description of the car somewhere? I looked on the site but could only find photos.

You bought another 914? Group: Benefactors Posts: 7,620 Joined: 27-June 03 From: Portage, IN Member No.: 865 Region Association: None |
It was for sale in 2016 in either Ohio or Michigan. I spoke with the owner and as Jeff stated it is a LE. Back then I believe he wanted $12k for it. I was short on funds then otherwise I would have try to make a deal on it and do like Jeff said de-bling it and get it back to the correct LE look.

It's over the edge alright. If you knew it was a 914LE would you view it differently? Is it really an LE? If so and the car is good in its elements one could Un-Bling it and give it back its Bum-Oo-Bee goodness. Bob B (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) |

It is a real LE.
I wonder what the street value is of that stuff if removed, vs the cost to replace? Things like the seats, steering wheel, and Fuchs for Mahles? Once an LE always an LE. |
