The Porsche 914 debuted in 1969 as a compact entry-level sports car for Porsche, who needed to replace the ageing 912. The 914 was well-received by the motoring public, despite some questioning as to whether it was a proper Porsche, largely due to some Volkswagen connections. That question has long since been put to rest, and you can find out for yourself with the purchase of this 1974 Porsche 914. Bearing 69,300 miles on the clock, here is a classic car that you can enjoy as well as consider a smart investment for the future. Read on to discover all you need to know about this 914.
This 1974 Porsche 914 bears its original Signal Green color, albeit having been repainted approximately fifteen years ago as per the current owner. There's also a leather front clip cover or bra to protect the front end from stone chips while traveling at higher speeds. You'll also notice the distinctive pop-up headlamps that give the car its characteristic frontal appearance. It looks like a Porsche, and not like one at the same time. Moving to the side grants us a great view of its compact and low stance, with black wheels that sit neatly within the arches at the rear. After all, the 914 is less than 157 inches long and stands less than 49 inches tall. The rear sports a distinctive lamp cluster that's suitably different from the 911, as well as an exposed exhaust muffler. The current owner discloses that the car needs a new trunk latch but assures that the current one is operational. There also appears to be some surface rust in the door sills and near the rear bumper, but that's easily fixable by a competent body shop. Inside, there's a compact cabin for two occupants to travel within, resting on black leather seats. You've got a clear and neat Porsche instrument cluster with the signature central tachometer, as well as some auxiliary gauges in the center console. There's also a ventilation system and period Blaupunkt push button radio in the dash. Gaze upwards, and you'll find a tinted sunroof. We also spot a button for the windshield defroster. That's it, really. No modern fripperies, voice controls, or smartphone integrations with this car. You've got to go back to your roots and embrace driving sans social media connectivity at your fingertips.
This 1974 Porsche 914 sports a 2.0L flat four behind the passenger cabin. The current owner reports that a swap to Weber dual carburetors has been performed. The drive is sent to the rear wheels via a five-speed manual transmission, further allowing you to embrace the joy of driving this 2,000-pound sports car.
Porsche, renowned for its legendary 911, has a rich history of crafting diverse models, including accessible entry-level options for enthusiasts aspiring to own a piece of the brand's heritage. In the 1960s, this ethos gave birth to the Porsche 914, a collaboration with Volkswagen and a brainchild of Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, the grandson of the founder. The 914, with its innovative design and approachable performance, was a resounding success, amassing over 118,000 units from 1969 to 1976. Among these is the 1973 Porsche 914 Targa, a splendid representation of the model, boasting 73,000 miles since its inception. Let's delve into the finer details of this classic.
The Porsche 914 was a joint Porsche-Volkswagen project to grant both automakers an affordable, entry-level sports car to add to their line-ups. The new model would hit the market in 1969 and be produced until 1976. In 1970, Motor Trend voted it their Import Car Of The Year. This particular 1976 Porsche 914 comes from the last year of production and bears just 40,000 reportedly original miles since new. The current owner is said to have had the car for approximately five years. There's also said to be some original documentation available, as well as the owner's manual and books.

When it comes to performance sedans, there are few options that manage to combine luxury, speed, and style in the way that Porsche has done with the Panamera. The Porsche Panamera was first launched in 2009, marking the company’s entry into the four-door sedan market. Over the years, its offering has been refined extensively, and today, it is widely respected as one of the best options in the sports sedan market. The Panamera seamlessly allows you to transport four people in comfort without sacrificing driving dynamics or performance. Our featured car is a 2020 Porsche Panamera GTS, one of the higher-performance models available in the German marque’s portfolio. It’s powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine and is offered here with just 37,000 miles.
The Porsche 911 is an icon in itself. From its style, layout, and performance all have undeniably been not far from its roots which is why the 911 is as revered and desirable. Initially introduced in 1963 as an air-cooled sports car, the Porsche 911 has evolved to match the modern world but still retains its uniqueness. The previous generation of Porsche 911 was produced from 2011 to 2019 and featured a completely new platform. Porsche 911s are known for being beasts on their own, but with a few refinements and upgrades as with this 2018 Porsche 911 Carrera S, the car can zip through a track in no time.
The Porsche 911 is a different kind of sports car. Each generation is an evolution of the last, with all generations feeling wonderfully advanced while remaining faithful to an original recipe. The 997 generation of 911 is already gaining appreciation as one of the best modern iterations of Posrche’s rear-engined formula. And there are few cars that do it better than this 2007 Porsche 911 Turbo. Add the “Turbo” tag to the end of any 911 and things start to get a whole lot more serious — you could say it’s a point where the 911 jumps out of the traditional sports car category and edges towards supercar territory. The 997.1 offered for sale here has 73,876 miles on the clock and features some choice factory options, as well as a few subtle upgrades to make it a very attractive package waiting for its next owner.
By its third generation, the Chevrolet Corvette was already a well-known icon within the landscape of American motoring. The C3, introduced in 1968, retained its sleek and muscular appearance, adding a few more curves to the design, with a bit of European flair injected into its philosophy. It was still distantly Corvette. The C3 was also the first model to introduce a Targa top to its coupe models, a feature that would remain a popular element that reappeared over the ensuing generations. The C3 was also the first Corvette to serve as the pace car for the Indianapolis 500—the first in a long tradition of Corvette pace cars that would appear for the iconic race. Our featured car is a 1975 Chevrolet Corvette with the 350ci V8 engine mated to an automatic transmission, and features a few choice performance upgrades.
When the 1965 Chevrolet Impala Coupe was first introduced, their commercials referred to it as a completely new look that time can not wash away. Sure enough, even after a number of decades, the Chevrolet Impala remains a car that is accepted to be beautiful from every angle. Another interesting fact about the 1965 model year is that they improved the Jet Smooth Ride with a new chassis and suspension design and made it standard equipment in every model. To this day, its ability to make you feel like you are hovering above potholes is said to surpass the comfort of contemporary city cars. This 1965 Chevrolet Impala Coupe, with a recently installed engine, bears only 1,000 miles on the clock.
There are few cars that can embed themselves into popular culture the way the achingly beautiful third-generation Chevrolet Impala has. The model featured many design flourishes that epitomized the ’50s and ‘60s, including the car’s long and flowing lines, low roof, lashing of chrome, wrap-around windshield, and distinctive c-pillar design. The car we offer for sale here takes the traditional Impala recipe and adds so much more. Under the hood, you’ll find a modern GM LS V8 engine, which just so happens to have a supercharger strapped to it for good measure. This 1962 Chevrolet Impala SS restomod has undergone an extensive restoration and features a host of new parts and upgraded tech. It could be yours, with just 2,500 miles recorded since the restoration was completed.
