Our Take:
- The 1974 Porsche 914 is often overlooked, overshadowed by its more glamorous siblings like the 911. However, it's cherished among enthusiasts for its distinctive mid-engine layout and sharp handling—qualities that made it a favorite in autocross competitions. When was the last time you saw one on the road that wasn't rusted or in need of TLC?
- Interestingly, the '74 model year was the introduction of the 1.8L engine variant, alongside the 2.0L, which broadened its appeal. This car, with its manual transmission and low mileage, is likely a joy on winding roads, especially with the mechanical refresh this one's received with new hoses and spark plugs.
- No smog requirement? That's a big plus for classic car buffs in certain states—allowing you to enjoy that vintage exhaust note without the modern-day hassle. Plus, those polished rims and recent tint are the cherry on top, giving it a touch of '70s swagger.
- Porsche's Targa top styling is iconic, and the 914's is no exception; having it in good condition is a treat. Coupled with a newly rewired electrical system and fresh stereo, it sounds like this one is ready for both the car show and the open road.
