Just recieved a new Autoweek today. The Market report had a 74 2.0 914 in beautiful shape that sold on the auction block at Christies in Greenwich, Conn. for $15,275. Not bad! Only reported to have 23,271 miles, but a neat deal nevertheless. Keith Martin is finally calling the 914 a good entry level collectable. What took him so long?

Actually, given the current market, that's a pretty fair price if the car was all there and the mileage was correct. There are a couple club members that would pay that on any given day for a car like that.

Martin usually has good things to say about the 914. In the 9/20/04 issue of Autoweek, he profiled a '75 for $11,000 and said they would continue go up. Looks like he was right. It's Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car that's been dissing the 914 lately. They did an auction profile a couple of months back where the 914 in question had some pitted chrome and was missing a mirror, and joked that it came from the factory that way. Funny, guys. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I just non-renewed Hemmings. Not just for that, but thought it was a cheap shot. They also missed a good chance to mention this non-club LLC, and coulda done the 914 article better. Slight hi-jack: Hemming's Ludvigsen is in Winding Road now. And their website has either improved , or I din't pay enuf attention to it. Edit: Road & Track Sep 06 has a picture of an early 914 at Hershey on page 105.
