Hello everyone, I just purchased a 1973 2 ltr 914 earlier today. I'm pretty excited. We pick the car up in 30 days. Waiting for the virus to calm down before travelling. I think we got a great deal on a 1973 2 ltr all original in beautiful condition. No rust except very minor surface rust on the pan. 80,000 miles, Sambesi green. We paid $10k and I don't think that was bad at all.
I've had 911's and a 930 Turbo and 1 914 many years ago but never forgot how much fun these little cars really are. Can't wait to have her in time for summer driving. Lots of great curvy Oregon backroads to play on. I just wanted to join in and say hi. Any Oregonians in my are welcome to stop by.

Cheers, Roger

Welcome to the mid-engine madness! 1973 that’s my year.

congratulations sounds like an excellent deal.

We’re here in Hillsboro if you ever go north. My sons car (The original Mikey914) was Zambezi green. Nice solid car color one of my favorite.

Thanks! I think I got lucky. Been looking for 6 months and prices are going crazy. Saw this '73 looked it over checked it out and boom....bought right there.

We'll be going up to Tigard next month (virus permitting) to get the car. I'd like to find that hardboard cover panel that goes over the spare tire. Any ideas where to find one?

Need pics, but best of luck with it. You're gonna love it.

We have them and are only 25 min away. Love to see the car if you want to swing by

Wow! You have 'em? How much are they? Do they need to covered with carpeting?

We have with the bulkhead, $85 we can work something out if you only need the cover for the tire Swing by and check it out

If I lived in Oregon I would be at your shop every week......

Good luck. Car looks nice.

"Zambezi" green is a great color!

and congrats! Green Porsches seem to be all the rage now with the new cars. Looking forward to more pics and stories.

Awesome community here that have helped me tremendously, lots of great people and help in the PNW

Love the car!

Well that is a terrific car and color. Welcome to the madness. Looking forward to seeing a lot of pictures and your plans for the car.

Congratulations!

congrats

That is a clean looking 914, congrats!

You will love it even more once you take delivery. Here is a photo of my car originally from Oregon that came with the same Snazzy mirrors!

Blue is an awesome color. I really never intended to buy green but I'm liking it a lot.

Thanks, Roger

Nice find... can't go wrong with a 73-2.0L. You know that already having already owned a 914.

Looks like a great car

Did you work for Ampex?

Congratulation on your new acquisition. Green is
But, like some of us….you’re only beginning.
I see more in your future.
