Nice!! And reasonably priced. GLWS! If you don’t find a good buyer quickly, I bet it would do very well on BaT.

As stated - highly reputable member here.

Rob, that's gotta be hard to let go of.

Great value here for sure.

Whomever gets this car is one very fortunate individual.

I have seen Rob's 914 in person. It is a nice car and I believe at his asking price he is leaving money on the table. So if this is what you are looking for, you better snap this up before it vanishes and you end up regretting it for decades. Just sayin. OH, and Rob is just a great guy and honest about all aspects of the car. I wish him GLWTS. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I'll be up in Monterey end of the month. Hoping to see it if it lasts that long.

It would be great to have a driver while I continue on my other projects.
