This is a 1974 Porsche 914 with a 1.8L engine and a manual transmission. 124116 miles on the original engine. P/O parked the car 20 years ago and started to tear it down to do a restoration, but due to job relocation and health related issues was not able to finish it. It was running when parked (20 years ago), but was stored with a tarp over it for years. I have boxes of parts (not pictured) to go with what you see here that include brackets, mounting hardware, lights, the headlight covers, interior parts, and some that are shown such as extra front fenders and rear quarters, fog light bumper, dash, etc etc. There is rust in the usual places for a 914 and this car is a project for sure, but with all the included parts there would not be near as much to acquire as one would think from looking at these pictures, however this car is not 100% complete obviously but does have extras you can sell/trade for parts needed with other 914 owners. If I were a welder/painter, I would take this on, but I'm selling to help fund my other 914 project that is a 2.0L. Baby on the way means space must be cleared and my toys have to go so I can have some spending cash to complete the other toys. This car will come with a clean and clear TN title. Thanks for viewing! Pick up in Johnson City, TN but I will work with you if you arrange shipping to meet with them when they come to pick it up.

Porsche stalls on Ferrari 458 rival
Mon, 17 Nov 2014A few years ago, reports surfaced that Porsche was planning a new supercar. But the latest intel suggests that the plan has been put indefinitely on the back burner.
The project alternately referred to as 960 or 988 was put forth by CEO Matthias Müller shortly after he assumed control of the German automaker. It called for a mid-engined V8 supercar to slot in between the 911 and the 918 Spyder to take on the likes of the Ferrari 458 Italia, McLaren 650S and sister-company Lamborghini's Gallardo and subsequent Huracán.
Now three years since the idea was first mooted, the vehicle has yet to materialize. According to Autocar, Porsche is putting a greater emphasis on refreshing its existing lineup. Which is probably just as well, because the mid-engined supercar would have a heck of a challenge on its hands to differentiate itself in terms of performance from the 911 GT3 and 911 Turbo, which already give the 458 and company a run for their money.
'We're not a hedge fund': Porsche plans to curtail speculators and flippers
Tue, May 30 2017A sizable number of speculators view cars as an investment. Rare or unusual models are quickly snapped up and either parked for years or flipped for a profit. Cars from automakers like Porsche and Ferrari are more prone than others, and at least some people behind these models are getting a bit tired of it. While it's difficult to police what goes on after you sell a car, Porsche has some plans that might curtail the problem before it starts. Andreas Preuninger, the head of GT road-car development and the man behind the new 911 GT3, spoke to Car and Driver at a recent event. "I personally like to see my cars being used," he said. "That's what we build them for. They are just too good to be left to stand and collect dust." One recent example of this rampant speculation is the 911 R. While the special manual-only model sold for $185,950 when new, used versions were selling for nearly $1.3 million just months after it went on sale. While the car is a masterpiece and an instant classic, a good number will be parked and simply used as art and not the rolling testaments to the man/machine interface they were intended to be. The concern over valuations has become so fierce that some owners are upset that Porsche is offering the new 911 GT3 with a manual transmission, fearing that it may hurt the value of the 911 R. "When I said we're not a hedge fund, I'm talking to those people who are yelling at us for offering the manual transmission similar to the R," Preuninger said. "But if there are people wanting to buy cars like that, then as a company we should try to fulfill that, to meet that demand." It seems Porsche is keeping a close eye on who is flipping cars. Since there is often far more demand than supply with certain models, the German automaker has a name for every car before it's built. Buyers with bad reputations might not even make the wait list.
