$35,000 914/6

Maybe they're worth this much, but if it's been sitting since 1988, it will need a nearly complete rebuild to be drivable. Obviously, driving isn't part of the plan...

Hmmmm -- "bone stock" US car with Euro turn signals F&R - and side markers...
if that's original 1971 silver paint, it's the only early-'70s silver car on the planet that hasn't had the paint fade/haze/craze. they *all* did that, especially in the lower lattitudes, and Porsche paid to have a bunch of metallic 911's repainted.

still - ya gotta start high, 'cause there's no way to raise the price in the face of overwhelming response ... quite a coup if s/he can get it. especially when I think what mine sold for... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif)

119K is low mileage for a 30 year old car...I've got a few cars that are less than 5 years old with many more miles on them than that 914 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

logically, that certainly make sense...but IMHO low mileage is low mileage. I have 91K on my 914 and I wouldn't consider it low mileage. But 50k on a 30 year old car......

Someone is dreaming. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)

If that paint is right (as if one can actually tell much of anything about paint from photos) the body, eyebrows and headlamp paint cloors do not seem to match.

Look in the 914club classified. There is one for $16K that same color. It is in PR.
