Porsche certificate, for my 914 Options

[daytona]

Hi guys,
Can anyone tell me where I can get a certificate from Porsche showing all the particulars about my car? I decided to sell one of my 914s and I like to have a certificate showing it is a numbers matching car.
Thanks,
Bill.

Porsche's mentality on this reminds me of the practice of long-established rock bands hawking cheesy t-shirts at intermission. They've made their millions, but still want to milk their faithful for a few more bucks. I don't need a t-shirt to prove I went to a concert and I don't need a COA or whatever their calling it now to prove I own the authentic 914 that's sitting in my garage. Gee, is there a possibility that it was cranked out in a Chinese sweatshop like a fake Rolex- I think not. Could it be a kit car- I don't think anybody is making kits of the most derided model in Porsche history. If Porsche was loyal to its fans and enthusiasts, they would provide to them every scrap of production and delivery info they could garnish in a single document at a reasonable cost. And as far as them providing a hands-on inspection by one of their so-called "classic experts", give me a break. I'll bet that "expert" is some millennial they sent to a one-week seminar to teach him that his company did actually produce cars before the Cayenne.

This and their long and overpriced options list has made them the most profitable car manufacturer in the world. The "Classic" program is under the guise of being faithful to the older model Porsche enthusiast, but, make no mistake, they are in it to further expand their bottom line.
