Anyone following 914s on Bring a Trailer?, 914 sales value on BAT Options

[wonkipop]

a side benefit of looking into 74 1.8s on BAT, along with member's data is i (and you) can spot 74 2.0s that never were. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I watch BaT and CL and recently posted here about PCarMarket.
I'm into conditional probabilities, kind of a statistics freak, been watching prices since the late '90s. These auction websites are interesting resources to see what people think is a good reserve price and whether reserves are broken. The PCarMarket auctions are interesting to follow the bidding and the comments. The CL ads are telling also, hardly any 914s hang around there. (https://cargraph.com/usa/porsche/914)

I've been looking for comps for @Marv's3.6six stolen 914 and how difficult his situation is when one owns such an "outlier" of a car and setting a price, wherein I would like to help him. (http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=361739&hl=insurance) The rise and fall of the market for 914s is not unlike the stock market, yet it is different where some people's souls are sold on 914s, willing to pay out the nose for a special car or even not so special.

Lately I've thought how useful it could be to have an auction setup on 914World. Auction cars and parts and services. These auction websites are not difficult to set up. Just throwing that idea out there.

914World is one helluva cool website, I've learned so much valuable information. Thank you All. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

The idea of auction page is good but typical 914 owner is a doer! They buy these cars and work on them themselves. The people paying big money at auctions are garage queens but all cars go up for sale someday.

Ditto!

Thanks for thinking of me and my situation. I am still in limbo.

I'm always following a few P cars, and the occasional F355 gated manual, and get notified when a 914 is listed. Actually had one recently from my hometown- realized it when recognizing the roads on the driving video!

Bid on a nice GT tribute a couple weeks ago- didn't feel bad when it went for 20K more than my top dollar.

There is quite a range of cars, and a real range of knowledge of what people are looking at, or commenting about.

Lets see what the yellow 2.0 does. I think mine is in better condition.

I’ve bought two so far on BAT and both from their “partner” Avant Garde (911r). Great cars, beautifully presented ( though they conveniently leave out photos of minor flaws), but these guys just lie about when wires and titles are moving. That’s no slam on BAT, just Avant Garde (911r) and they move a lot of 914s alongside a gazillion other Porsches. Wondering if anybody else has had similar experiences.
