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.

The mere mention of a classic Porsche and one's mind goes to the iconic 911. While the 911 is the seminal Porsche in every aspect, it can be hard to stand out in a world filled with different model years and aftermarket tuners. If you're looking to break away from the norm, then present today is a classic Porsche that isn't a 911 and takes shape with this 1970 Porsche 914-6. With a reported 72,902 miles on the clock, this classic Porsche comes with the same recipe that makes a 911 a true driver's car, but in a very different and compelling package.

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.
Introduced in 1964, Porsche’s 911 is one of those cars that has gained an almost immortal reputation. With its quirky rear-engined rear-wheel drive layout that’s well-known for separating great drivers from the merely good ones, Porsche also makes it in drop-top form. If that’s not enough, you can also ask for forced induction! That’s what today’s 2005 Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet from New Hyde Park, New York offers. This turbocharged convertible 911 comes with a pure manual transmission, stainless steel exhaust pipes and so much more. It’s got a little over 100,000 miles on it, and is all-wheel drive as well. The perfect all-weather car for a discerning enthusiast who knows how to drive sensibly? We think so!
There are a handful of manufacturers that have truly cracked the code in the perfect balance of the ingredients that make for an incredible drive. That handful of manufacturers is further broken down when you take into account consistency. Porsche has been at the forefront of pushing the limits of performance for many years. Present today is this 2017 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet. This machine has all the right tools for a drive experience you'll never forget. Better yet, it comes with two keys, a premium plus package, a smoking package, and has 73,205 miles on its clock.
Porsche’s fine 911 was already making waves in sports car circles when Porsche decided to go even further. Strapping a turbocharger onto an air-cooled engine wasn’t a particularly easy task, especially when said engine sits in the tail, rather than the nose of the car in question. Yet, Porsche did it by 1975 with the 930-generation Turbo. Known for its thrilling driving experience and need for respect by its driver, the 930 would see the original 3.0-liter flat-six enlarged to 3.3-liters by 1978. That’s what this 1987 Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet packs, and we’re told that it’s 1 of just 183 US-market examples for that particular year. With 54,199 miles on the clock and the original owner’s manuals included with the sale, this is a fantastic buy for a driver who likes a bit of a challenge, as well as owning and driving something of great automotive historical significance.
This 1970 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray captures the timeless beauty and performance of the early C3 generation, blending elegant curves with muscular presence. Finished in Marlboro Maroon, it reflects the era’s passion for dramatic, flowing sports car design. The 1970 model year is a standout among Corvette enthusiasts — marked by one-year-only design updates, flared fenders, and reduced production numbers following the GM strike, making examples like this both rare and collectible.
Who’s the world’s best luxury car maker? Chances are, you thought of Rolls-Royce. That’s the strength of the brand, not only in association, but in sheer proof by way of what they make. Those who experience a Rolls-Royce for themselves, whether it be ownership, a mere drive, or even a rear-seat ride, have all come away with this conclusion. RR does luxury at a different level, and owning one of their cars is a bucket list item for many. Today, we have this Florida-based 1993 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur for sale. With a mere 23,000 miles reported, this lovely long-wheelbase full-size sedan is the ticket to modern classic automotive nirvana. Join us as we tell you more, and if you want it, just shoot us a DM or call us the old-fashioned way.
There’s nothing like cruising around in a classic first-generation Ford Mustang. Anything made between 1964 and 1973 will do, really. Of course, many will lust for the fastback, while drop-top fans will head straight for the convertible. Meanwhile, those who want something a little cooler will prefer the hardtop. That’s what we have here, a nearly pristine 1966 Ford Mustang Hardtop that’s been repainted in Candy Apple Red and packs a 289ci V8 under the hood. This 2,727-mile machine could be yours if you choose – just give us a call or DM, or check it out in person – it currently resides in Maricopa, Arizona.
