I may be in the market for a /6 in the next year or so. I went to the NADA website and they list the value as:
............ Low Retail Avg Retail High Retail
914/4 $5,750 $6,575 $8,750
914/6 $16,700 $18,900 $25,100
I think the /4 prices may be slightly high and the /6 prices a little low, but over all this is a pretty good nation-wide estimate.
What say you?
If you can wait about 10 years I may, depending on circumstances, have the car you should buy.
I've been wondering what my car is worth ever since I got it 25 years ago. If book values are determined by a number of cars sold and averaged, what could a vehicle quite rarer than the average car with no others sold to determine a value be worth? It is an unrestored original and could be brought up to show quality with not an extreme amount of effort.
I have a 72 914/6 with 82,000 miles and a very clean body. The car has been stored in a dry garage and not driven in 25 years. What does that add or subtract to it's desirability factor? Has that added to the car's history or taken away from it?
I don't know much about the prior history of this car beyond the fact a teacher from France who apparently had been to LeMans in the mid 70s either racing or spectating had owned it. I'm not even sure whether he was the original owner, but the car was delivered/imported through the Sonauto dealership. If anyone here knows how I could trace it's record it would be appreciated.
