Came across these three Craigslist Los Angeles Postings for two 1974 2.0 cars and a 1973 2.0. All are listed in the $22K-$26K range. Also noticed that the Hagerty valuations have crept up about $500 since the early summer.

The OPEC (Organization of Porsche Escalating Charges) cartel is working! Yes, the train is definitely leaving the station. Glad I already have my 2.0 L. Saw the same thing happen after I bought a 356 for 17K in 2001. In ten years prices went through the ceiling and parts prices followed suit.

I see asking prices trending upward, but digging for actual sale prices I only see the top top cars commanding bigger money.

Makes me wonder if I should pull the converted six out of it and put the original 2.0L motor back in. You think there will be a time when the original 2.0L cars are worth more than a six conversion?

LOL, yeah I guess the fun factor accounts for a lot, but for a collector an original car is probably more valuable. |

I've got a 1974 2.0L Alaska Blue torn apart in my garage. Solid body but does need some minor hell hole work. Longs are solid. First $12,000 takes it as-is.

I agree that 914 values are on the rise - it's fun to see!
I bought my car because it's always been my dream car, not as an investment. It's an added bonus to "be in the black" on a car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I just had the agreed upon value with the insurance company increased to $19,500, up from $14,500. They didn't even send an appraiser out. |
