The Porsche 914 is a Porsche after all, but a Porsche with a difference. Unlike the iconic, teardrop-shaped 911, the 914 had a more angular design, pop-up headlamps, and a mid-engined configuration. Aimed at occupying a space beneath the 911, the 914 would serve as an introductory Porsche. Co-developed with Volkswagen, the 914 would see nearly 119,000 examples made between 1969 and 1976. This particular 1974 Porsche 914 Targa comes to you with some enhancements, allowing it to offer an even more engaging driving experience. So grab it while you can, and use it as a detox tool to free your mind on the weekends.
Arctic Blue is a lovely color when applied to an iconic car like this 1974 Porsche 914 Targa. It’s reminiscent of an Arctic Sky when the sun is low down in the sky, but not setting. The color is said to be an Audi shade. Then, of course, you have the pop-up headlamps, stylish alloy wheels and truncated rear design to enjoy. The car comes in at just 157 inches long, which is shorter than a modern subcompact crossover. Hence, you can easily dart about with ease, and place the car superbly well on narrow winding roads, which are its natural habitat, after all. The two-seat interior of this 1974 Porsche 914 Targa has been stripped out a bit, in the name of lightness and performance. There’s no air conditioning anymore, for example. Then, there’s a set of aftermarket racing bucket seats, but the original seats are available too. The current owner says that they need re-upholstering. Mercifully, a radio remains, and it’s a Kenwood unit with CD, USB and AUX playback avenues. So, you can pump up your jam of choice while driving down your favorite road. And of course, since it’s a Targa, you’ve got a removable roof panel for open-air drives. Suddenly, the lack of air conditioning becomes far less relevant.
Packing a 1.8L flat-four behind the passenger cabin, we’re told that the engine of this 1974 Porsche 914 Targa has been bored out to nearly 2.0L. That’s not all; it’s running Dellorto racing carburetors in place of the original Bosch fuel injection system for even more pep. Driving the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual transmission, you’ll enjoy every moment with this 1974 Porsche 914 Targa.

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 Baby Porsche SUV of the range these days, the Macan was conceived as a compact luxury crossover, intended to slot in beneath the Cayenne in Porsche’s SUV range. Now in its second generation, the Macan, like any self-respecting Porsche, offers a driver-focused experience, intended to target enthusiasts and fans of the brand. If you’re in search of a Macan, we have this sub 15,000-mile 2024 Porsche Macan GTS for grabs from Naples, Florida. It’s reportedly an all-original car with window sticker and two keys included in the sale.
The Porsche 911 is one of the most remarkable, influential and popular sports cars of all time. Introduced in 1964, its teardrop shape and rear-mounted engine layout continue to this day, as does the five-dial instrument cluster and enthusiast-oriented driving experience. Until 1998, the engine was air-cooled, following which it reverted to water cooling in response to tightening emissions regulations and of course, more power demands. That means pre-1998 cars like this 993-era 1995 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet are a must-have for purists who want that air-cooled powertrain, but prefer some modern conveniences. This particular car hails from Coral Gables, Florida and has covered just 46,000 miles so far. Plus, it’s got an automatic gearbox, thus is perfect if you can’t or don’t want to drive stick.
The Porsche 718 Boxster was introduced in 2016 as the successor to the popular Porsche Boxster that redefined entry-level Porsche sports cars. Yes, Porsche has offered an entry-level model for much of its recent history, a sort of feeder, if you will, towards ownership of a 911 or some of the brand’s other models. That hasn’t stopped the 718 Boxster from also being one of the best enthusiast cars out there, an ideal tool for learning the basic and advanced techniques of performance driving. Regardless of which camp you may belong to, this 2025 Porsche 718 Boxster is a nice option to consider. It’s got only more than 5,000 miles on the clock and comes with 1 key plus a car cover included with the sale. The car is available in Manteca, California.
The 1961 Chevrolet Impala is one of the most recognizable early-60s American coupes, known for its sweeping side trim, quad headlights, and jet-age design language. This example has been transformed into an LS-swapped restomod while retaining much of its original character inside and out. Finished in green with a white interior, the car features a recently installed LS1 V8 with approximately 94,601 miles on the engine. The firewall has been painted in candy apple red, highlighting the custom drivetrain installation, though the exterior paintwork remains unfinished and the seller has noted a quarter panel issue pending further documentation. Sitting on 22-inch wheels, this Impala blends classic styling with modern performance, presenting as a partially completed project with strong mechanical foundations.
Arguably the most popular Mercedes-Benz model in the United States during the Seventies and Eighties, The R107 era of their SL-Class grand tourer saw over 204,000 units find homes. This was during an 18-year production run that spanned 1971 to 1989. Impressive as the figure may be for a luxury car, it’s even more admirable when you consider that just over 300,000 were made in total! In fact, more R107 SLs found homes Stateside than they did in Germany or anywhere else in the world. Today, there’s no shortage of fine examples, thanks to the car’s superb Mercedes-Benz build quality. Hence, this Texas-based 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL is a rather sensible purchase to make, even if you have no idea about classic cars. With its 5.6-liter V8, 4-speed automatic gearbox and aftermarket Kenwood stereo unit, it’s a sound choice. Don’t worry about the 142,000 miles on the odometer, these cars are built to go the distance if maintained well.
The 80s brought about a massive change in the automotive world; it was a seismic shift in terms of customer taste and what manufacturers brought to the table. While the 70s were a nice era for the car in general, the 80s would transform into a whole lot of synth and digital. The “Z” by Nissan was one of those machines that helped shape the 80s. Feast your eyes on the 80s in motion and get behind the wheel of this 1986 Nissan 300ZX we have today. Hailing from Palm Coast, Florida, and with just 79,035 miles on its clock, this '80s beauty is the perfect weekend drive and even serves as the foundation for a high-performance build.
