Vehicle Description
Sleek, nimble, and absolutely fun, this 1973 Porsche 914 reminds
you why the Germans build the best driver's machines.
Saturn Yellow is a cool paint name, and the trim tag tells us it's
factory-correct. It's the right choice for a 914 because black goes
great with yellow, and darkness is a big part of the car's design.
The bumpers, rockers, and mid-engine grille are all done in black.
Plus, the roof is a terrific design that has the 1970s premium
vinyl top style and incorporates a removable targa top. As you look
over the whole car, you're going to see a driver-quality style, and
that means it's a driver-ready machine. So there's plenty of room
for improvement, but it's the right style for carefree enjoyment on
a whim. You'll also appreciate the details that are already in
place, like the well-fitting targa top, modern tires, and bright
15-inch alloy wheels.
The clean full black interior goes well with the exterior color
combo, and so you just know this Porsche loves to be open to the
world. Nicely sculpted bucket seats, the classic Porsche sports
steering wheel, and full gauges with a large tach in the center are
all about making sure you feel the enthusiast's passion from the
moment you sit down. Plus, two trunks mean you can store the targa
top and still have room for some luggage. So it's ready for a full
back roads weekend trip.
Under the rear hatch is the 1.7-liter air-cooled flat-four. The low
center of gravity and the mid-mounted engine are the kind of setup
that would make race cars jealous. And as you look at this
powerhouse, you'll notice it now is altered for a dual set of Weber
two-barrel carburetors. It makes for a simpler setup than the fuel
injection, and it also offers decent performance. So it's the kind
of setup that's ideal for those who love to tinker on Saturday
morning so that there's extra power unleashed for driving on
Saturday night. And the real secret to enjoying the motor is the
full control you get from the five-speed manual transmission. What
has kept the 914 so desirable for a half-century is that Porsche
only knows how to build the best driving machine. A well-engineered
fully independent suspension, nimble steering, and four-wheel disc
brakes is exactly the right recipe for a car that you're going to
want to drive.
Complete with the owner's manual, this is the Porsche that was made
for driving. You'll likely find areas to improve and personalize,
but that fundamental feel of nimble pure driver's passion is there
from the moment you twist the key. Call today!!!
