That would look great.

agree but anyone can ask all they want. Its wether some poor soul wants it bad enough.

I kind of have a hard time calling someone who can pony up the bucks a 'poor soul'. Not a value judgement I'd be willing to make.

Sometimes there is more meaning in words and phrases than we realize.

I think the engine build is what brings this cars price so high. The chassis build is super clean and detailed, but many 914-6 GT builds have this as well for a lot less money.

I like the car, but would have done a few things different IMHO...

Rasberry?

Raspberry.

Spent $370,000 restoring and building a 914. I don't think that covers the cost of the car, so let's say $400,000 spent.

600 hours labor to make a couple of fiberglass bumpers. I got a call BS unless the check writer was a stoned, rich moron.

DUDE! He only wants 225k for it! That's a huge loss for this poor fella.

WOW.
The "upgrades" are interesting. But for that price the number of buyers it speaks to, will be VERY limited.

Ok you guys.....quit thinking and start feeling.....how much fun would this car be if you got it for free?? Let's talk car....not money...k? OMG....my car was down for three (3) months and once I got to drive it again the grin on my face was unstoppable...these little guys are just too much fun which is why we get addicted....like heroin....."it felt so good I want to do it more". Why else would we do this? Up to $300 plus K? Like all of us.....pure addiction.....so my point is that there is no point...leave me alone and let me work on my car....(trunk hinge mount replacement for current "project"). Without this addiction what else would I do??

BTW that looks like a real nice car!! I can't even imagine what driving it would be like?? I still think a 2.0 six in a six is plenty.....everyone else likes 3.2 and above....I guess I would to if I didn't have to pay for it....never been in one so maybe I would drink the cool aid and have to have one.....

There is a real speedster for less on Ebay.
and two 911 speedsters also.

Beautiful car. Love the orange color. Good work.

no wheel center caps?

Isn't that the truth... Also driving the 914 just "feels" faster than driving most modern cars... so when you have a fast 914... well that's just a whole nuther story


But for $225k, that opens the doors to alot of much higher end cars.

This is a seriously fast car.
Much faster than your typical 3.0 or 3.2 transplant.

From the builder: Pro driver Andrew Davis, who recently drove this car, said it was by far the fastest 914-6 he had ever driven, including all the full-on race cars, and he felt confident it would out-accelerate a 991 Cup car to 100 MPH.

That is really hauling some beans there.
All coming out of a 2.8.

Dyno pull for the skeptics....not the numbers (+300hp), but just how fast this engine spools up under load. Pretty amazing.

what a car!
yeah, its expensive, but I'm buying a lottery ticket this week

Why ?

So happy, BIGGLY happy, we get multiple threads and get to discuss the same car over and over. Old news folks.

You can change the channel if you've seen it before and are not interested.

Or, i can simply merge the threads ...

Don't you have important things to do...like bathroom remodeling or something...maybe install a new silverware divider?

I'm at work, so no, nothing more important to do ...

I could, but I prefer THIS thread. Looks like it done got fixed good. REAL GOOD!

Or, as mentioned in a previous post, a "poor soul".

Sorry, I was responding to post #60.

I can't add anything more to this thread....


but I'll try...


Man that's an expensive 914-6. I wonder if its faster than a GT3? The price is about the same....

For about the same amount of money, you could also buy a brand new nicely equipped 911 turbo.

Ever notice how guys can't stop talking about a pretty girl they saw?? Is it just me or is this the same lust....??
gg

Girls? Where?

Is it the car or the price? I wonder if this car would get the same attention if it was 85K.

I agree, it would be talked about at that price (and possibly sold) but not warrant so many threads.

No, it's just you ...
