Hello all. I need some expert advice. I am a longtime Porsche enthusiast and I have always loved the 914 but I've never owned one. I have a 944 turbo that I drive a little and use on the track. I want to buy a 914 now to use mostly as a driver with maybe a weekend every now and then on the track. I am looking at a local car that is a '71 1.7. It has downdraft webbers, runs well, and shifts ok. Some problems are: gauges don't work (except tach), door handles don't work from inside, passenger seat is shot, and the interior in general isn't beautiful. The good news is that there appears to be no rust anywhere and the car was repainted (yellow) in '02. They are asking $6500, which I thought was way high. I offered $3500 and they did not take it. What is the approximate value of a car like this? Thanks.
