i paid a fair price for the car, and can purchase that car with very little info and be 100% confident that what i paid was a great investment. as a driver, probably not worth it. but only i can determine what i feel is best for the car when i see it inb person. my world revolves around this car and it is actually a family affair. my wife, and my lil reason for livin (son 5 yrs) all tear into the car, sort the good from the bad, seperate hardware,catalog each part. all of this work goes into providing quality used parts for you and the rest of the 914 comunity worldwide. so that car can fold in half when jacked from its jack post or stand with the jack stiff and straight.. does not matter. of coarse it does matter if the car is to be saved, as structural rust, depending on severity will dtermine what happens to the vin...
right now the economy is tearin peoples lives apart as they loose their jobs, house,914 er...
i had to sell my 71 and me and my son loved that car. but the 914 is what pays the bills and gives me great friendships all over the world... so i dont know if i said what you wanted to hear, but i look at the car a little different than the average owner... but having had alot of cars throughout my life, the 914 stands alone. great cars and great people.
thanks

I am new to the 914's I am not a stranger to Porsches and have been trying to find a nice care at a reasonable price to get started. What value did you see in this car that made it worth whatever price you paid for it. I am not being critical but just trying to learn. When I looked at this car I thought for whatever amount he wanted it was too much. But was the value in a running engine that could be used for another car or was it in the sum of its parts because as a whole it just did not seem worth the asking price. Any help in understanding the economics of 914s would be appreciated.
