Interesting article.
https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/bu...be-collectible/ Never thought I'd see a 914 worth more than a 911....but that day has come. Although initially I didn't buy my teener for appreciation value. |

A friend who works for Porsche said around the water cooler the 996 is the car the accountant's built.
There was one at my local shop recently, the guy paid $15,000, thought he was the smartest guy in the world, when I left his bill had reached $7000 and was climbing, for normal wear stuff, nothing big. So he is already over $20,000 for a car worth about $15,000. But money aside, before I bought my 993 I was looking at 996's, I drove one that one was town over, it was very underwhelming, it reminded me of driving a Mistubishi 3000, yeah the gauges were moving, but it had no soul. Now a 993, that's a Porsche, and you feel it and hear it. And a 914, I love driving a 914, you can feel everything. |
