1975 Porsche 914 2.0 Fuel Injected Justin 503-969-5127 Hello
eBay! Thanks for checking out my
listing. Those of you that follow me
know that I have a thing for the 914s.
Yes, I am a fan. I know all the
great and all the bad and all the in between too. Some purists and enthusiasts out there will
not like this car because of some of the changes made. I understand and apologize up front for
this. Please hold back you scornful
comments I know this car well and am going to present it EXACTLY as it is. This is a
1974 Porsche 914 2.0 with its factory installed GA code engine and fuel
injection. The car is matching numbers;
Chassis, Engine, and Transmission. The
car has recently been repainted in its original L13K Summer Yellow. I believe this is the cars 3rd
paint job as somewhere back down the road it was painted Berber Yellow L11D. This color is still seen under the rear trunk
lid. I don’t know who did this or why it
happened. The paint on the car now is
really nice. The car looks fantastic,
but there are several changes from original that I would like to point out. The sail material has been deleted. Also the targa top has been finished smooth
and painted to match the body color. The
brake calipers have also been painted to match.
The Porsche graphic was also added.
Both the trunks have been covered in line X or some such material. I can tell that a panel was repaired in the
rear trunk. Presumably from rust, the
material may have been used to cover the repair. The front looks original so maybe they
sprayed there to just match them. I don’t
know for sure. The floor boards have
also been sprayed from the top side. Underneath
looks pretty good so again I am not sure of all the reasons for the changes I
can just report on the condition. The battery
was also relocated to a spot in the rear trunk.
This was a popular decision in the past as the trays would rust from the
acid in the battery and beneath that is the “Hell Hole” the Achilles’s heel of 914s..
This one looks fine. What would happen
is the battery would leak and then rust this area that is part of the suspension
of the car. The worry of this caused
many to relocate the battery as prevention.
I think that
the cosmetic condition will impress anybody when they consider the age of the
car and also the value. If you know
yourself to be a perfectionist and are always striving for this please
understand that this car is not there.
It is nice and could be shown at cruise inns, but it is not a show car. The interior
is very clean and tidy. The seats are
supple and the proper basketweave. The
carpet is nice and bright and clean. The
dash’s cracks are limited to 3 and are not bothersome or unsightly. The wipers and heat and blinkers and
headlights all work properly. The miles
show 17,915 and I believe them to be over the mechanical limits once. Both seats don’t have the adjustment loops
anymore but can easily be moved by pressing the underside release. The engine
starts easily and runs strong. It drips
about a dime size drip every few days.
It never smokes or knocks or has difficulties. The 2.0 is the favored 4 cylinder of these
cars for many reasons, but the performance is the reason for me. I would go so far as to say it’s actually torquey. The later cars, like this one, also have the
advantage of the side shifter transmission.
They are far superior to the tail shift version. This one has an easy time with all of the gears
and all the syncros match perfectly. The
clutch is also very tight and has the perfect 1’’ of freeplay at the top. The wheels
are beautiful and original there is no curb rash or scars or bends. The tires are fair.. Tires are inexpensive and would be the first
expense I would lavish on this car if I were to keep it. So, what
else does the car need? What would I
do?? I have lots of ideas.. Everyone’s tastes are different. The car is nice as it is.. The good thing is the car is mechanically
sound and solid. It also looks
great. I am a purest and a guy that
thinks that originality is key. I would
replace the sail material because I like that look. I would blast off the line x material from
the trunks and finish them in the proper color.
In this step I would also replace the factory battery tray and put in an
Optima battery (they never leak).. I would
source a second top in black and switch them out depending on my mood, and I
would buy a set of Pirelli P4s.. Down
the line I might back date the bumpers to chrome.. There are lots of options with this
car.. Its either a great driver as it is
or a great start to something fantastic.
BOTH MAYBE!! It’s up to the new
owner. I am selling
the Porsche with a LOW RESERVE and I know the little car will sell the first go
around as long as we all play by these rules.

Bentley tests next next-gen Flying Spur on Porsche Panamera Turbo body
Fri, Oct 21 2016At first glance, the prototype in the gallery above looks like a blacked-out version of the new Porsche Panamera Turbo. But this is actually Bentley's tester for the next-gen Flying Spur. And since the upcoming Flying Spur, among other Bentley vehicles, will utilize the same MSB platform as the new Porsche, seeing the British automaker using a Panamera makes a lot of sense. The Flying Spur is essentially a four-door version of the Continental GT, which has design cues from the EXP 10 Speed 6 concept unveiled at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show. It's safe to assume that the next-gen Flying Spur will get the same treatment as well. Other than the fender flares, the prototype is identical to the Panamera Turbo. So how do we know that this is Bentley's prototype? According to our photographers, the prototype's license plate is registered as a Bentley with the UK's Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency. With the Flying Spur sharing the same platform as the Panamera, we expect the luxury sedan to get the same choice of engines, including the twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 and 2.9-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine. A concept is anticipated to come out in 2017 with a production variant coming a year later.

2015 Porsche 911 GTS starts at $114,200*
Wed, 08 Oct 2014Purists often criticize Porsche for creating products like the Cayenne, Panamera and recently launched Macan, saying they dilute the true sports car spirit of the brand. It's an argument we've heard before, and one we counter with two points. First: No they don't. And second: These are Porsche's volume superstars, and the money they rake in allows the company to create dozens of versions of its well-liked sports cars. Want proof? Have a look at the gallery above, where you'll see four new versions of the 911, all with GTS badges on their rumps. This means Porsche now offers 19 versions of the 911. Nineteen.
Porsche offered a GTS version of the 911 in its previous generation, and this new one seeks to slot somewhere between the standard car and the hardcore GT3. It's available in coupe and cabriolet forms, with either rear- or all-wheel drive, starting at $114,200, *not including $995 for destination. The GTS Cabriolet comes in at $126,100, while models equipped with AWD will set you back $120,900 or $132,800 for the coupe or convertible, respectively.
All GTS models get the 430-horsepower version of the Carrera S' 3.8-liter flat-six with the Powerkit, which also includes the Sport Chrono package and the sport exhaust. If equipped with the PDK dual-clutch transmission, the 911 GTS will hit 60 miles per hour in just 3.8 seconds (or four seconds flat, if you've got the Cabriolet) - one tenth of a second quicker than the normal Carrera S. The car's top speed varies, depending on trim or transmission, but Porsche says the car will hit anywhere from 187 to 190 mph, flat out.
Porsche spotted testing next-gen Panamera in the snow
Thu, Jan 22 2015It's winter testing season in northern Sweden, and the latest spy shots our paparazzi on the ground have brought us is the upcoming Porsche Panamera testing in the cold and snow. The upcoming new four-door Porsche, spied wearing only minimal camouflage, appears to have a more elegant and sloping roofline than the existing model. Other details like the lights, mirrors and grille openings look fairly consistent with what we've been seeing on Porsche's other models as they've trickled out. Based on the new MSB platform, the new Panamera is set to share its underpinnings with the next Bentley Continental and possibly an Audi variant as well – though the prospect of a Lamborghini version to follow the Estoque concept seems to be off the table. The new platform will, however, make the new Panamera lighter than the current model. A new range of V6 and V8 engines are expected to provide motivation, driving the rear wheels or all four, along with the available e-hybrid system. Porsche's first four-door sedan was introduced in 2009 and underwent a facelift in 2013, so the all-new second-generation model should arrive sometime later this year or next as a 2017 model. This new model could provide the impetus for Porsche to put the Sport Turismo shooting brake version into production as well, and maybe – just maybe – a two-door coupe and possible convertible versions to follow in the footsteps of the 928.
