1976 Porsche 914 Base Coupe 2-door 2.0l Targa on 2040-cars
Vero Beach, Florida, United States
This 38yr.old beauty has been a cherished part of our family for the past 38 years. I’m only the second owner of this Porsche, having purchased it in March of 1981. It has been garaged for my entire ownership. The car underwent a complete restoration 24 years ago, with a couple of minor ones in the past 12 years to ensure the quality of the car. It was a daily driver and a weekend SCCA slalom racer, then following the restoration a sunny Sunday car with historic plates and limited mileage. I decided to make it a driver’s car with upgrades that would enhance the driving experience, as opposed to a 100% OEM Original car as would have left the factory in 1976.
My age and car storage issues are the only reasons for the reluctant sale of this little gem.
All receipts are available for all the major servicing for the past 38 years, including the original Owner’s Manual and Original Window Sales Sticker! I have been a Porsche Club of America since purchasing the 914. This organization has been a terrific resource for maintaining and enjoying the very best the 914 has to offer. The car has only been driven 30,821 miles since the full restoration. Here is a partial list of all the many things done to the car over the years:
Complete bare metal body restoration and Guards Red repaint New carpet replacement, including both front and rear trunks Koenig Racing Bucket Seats Factory Center Console with Temp, Oil and Pressure gauges Alpine/Polk Stereo System with front trunk mounted subwoofer Weber carburetor conversion Rebuilt engine with slight overbore cylinder liners and larger pistons Lightened flywheel Stainless Steel Heat Exchangers Reinforced Battery Tray with Battery Cutoff Switch Monza Exhaust Epsilon 3-pc. Modular Wheels with Goodyear GT+4 tires Koni Shocks Automotion front and rear Sway Bars and suspension bushings Rebuilt Pedal box with Delrin Bushings New fuel pump New metal fuel line New gearshift kit Re-built Alternator Factory Front Spoiler Rear 916 Spoiler Electronic trunk release Comes with nose bra and car cover
The car recently had an engine tune-up and runs beautifully. I would heartily invite any inspection and scrutiny of the 914 and would encourage a serious buyer or their agent to come and see and drive the car. The Porsche is also advertised elsewhere, so I reserve the right to end this eBay listing if the car sells locally.
A $500.00 PayPal deposit is required within 48 hours of the winning bid. Following the receipt of deposit, buyer must contact me for the terms of the balance owed via a mutually agreed payment method. Car is located in Vero Beach, Florida. I could possibly assist with transportation arrangements, but buyer collection of the car is much preferred. Please email with any further questions or inquiries. Robert, 772-562-5128 drrreese@reagan.com Thanks for looking! |

Lamborghini could be sold or spun off from the Volkswagen Group
Sat, Oct 12 2019Volkswagen is reportedly considering a sale or stock listing for its high-end Lamborghini brand. The German automaker is looking to fold the Italian supercar brand into a separate legal entity, reports Bloomberg, which cites "people familiar with the matter" who don't want to be identified "because the deliberations are confidential and no decisions have been made." Any of this sound familiar? The goal of spinning off Lamborghini would be to stockpile more cash and other resources for VW's massive planned push into electric vehicles. Back in March, reports circulated that Volkswagen's "Vision 2030" corporate plan might include plans to focus on the brand's core brands — VW, Audi and Porsche. That means the futures of fringe players like Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti, motorcycle brand Ducati and design firm Italdesign (and note this isn't a comprehensive list of brand's under the expansive VW Group umbrella) are up in the air. VW, according to the report, is targeting a market value of $220 billion, which is a big jump from the brand's current $89 billion valuation. Bloomberg pegged Lamborghini's valuation at around $11 billion back in August, buoyed by sales and profits generated by the introduction of the Urus sport utility vehicle. On the flip side, Lamborghini is currently grappling with how best to update its supercar lineup in the face of ever-increasing emissions regulations.

Porsche Cayman S and Caterham 7 go head to head on the drag strip
Fri, 27 Jun 2014We recently saw the standard Porsche Cayman go up against a Subaru WRX STI in a one-mile drag race with surprising results. Apparently, Evo had a similar idea of evaluating the Cayman's quickness. However, it opted for the more powerful S model and chose a flyweight Caterham Roadsport 140 as the challenger. Will the results of this battle be as close at the end of the kilometer-long (0.62-mile) drag?
Neither of these are cars you'd usually associate with drag racing, but they are nearly evenly matched. Evo selected them based on power-to-weight ratio, with the Caterham offering a scant 140 horsepower in a lithe 1,213-pound package. The Porsche is a quite svelte 2,910 pounds but has 325 hp to haul it around.
Of course, power-to-weight ratio isn't everything. There are a ton of other variables like aerodynamics and gearing that play a huge role, as well. Can the little Caterham's weight advantage overcome the better aero and additional power of the Porsche? Scroll down watch the video and find out.
