The Porsche 911 set the scene in the Sixties, and the 912 represented an affordable entry point into owning a fine German sports car. By the end of the Sixties, Porsche, as well as parent company Volkswagen, needed something new to tease the market with. Enter the 914, a mid-engined two-seat roadster with a removable Targa top, for a fun driving experience at a relatively more wallet-friendly price. If you're after one of these, we've got a 1976 Porsche 914 with 120,000 miles on the clock for sale. The current owner reports it to be all-original, and given that the 914 is already attaining classic status, you'd be making a smart buy on this one.
The 914's design is far removed from the more popular 911. For starters, it features pop-up headlamps and boat-tail styling reminiscent of the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia, which it was meant to replace. This 1976 Porsche 914 showcases all those features in a bright red paint job and rolls on a set of lovely period wheels. A side profile view further accentuates its mid-engined layout, as the cab is closer to the front than the rear of the car, lending it a darting, almost enthusiastic silhouette. It's capped off by black bumpers, black B-pillars, and a black Targa top. Note that the Targa top fits neatly within the trunk, so you don't need to leave it at home if venturing out topless. If you're concerned about luggage space, there's a front trunk as well since the engine lives just behind the passenger cabin. Inside, two occupants enjoy a spartan cabin free of the frivolities of modern-day sports cars. The seats feature a tartan-styled pattern in shades of red, with the iconic Porsche instrument cluster facing the driver. You've got wind-up windows and manually adjusted seats. However, the dash does host levers for the ventilation system, and there's a radio cassette deck with footwell-mounted speakers for some tunes. Pop in one of those cassette tape AUX adapters, and you're good to go with modern tunes via a smartphone.
This 1976 Porsche 914 comes with the largest engine offered, a 2.0-liter flat-four or Boxer engine that sits low in the center of the car. Developing 99hp and 118lb-ft, you can tell it's not a powerhouse, but the beauty of the 914 lies in its handling, wringing out every single horse from the soulful Boxer engine and snicking gears through the five-speed manual transmission. Zero to sixty may take a shade over ten seconds, but who cares when you're in such a wonderful little car?
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.
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.
Porsche’s first SUV, the Cayenne was introduced in 2002. The Cayenne quickly gained a reputation as a luxury SUV that offered Porsche’s signature driving experience, making it the most family-friendly car that the Stuttgart automaker offered at the time. Mind you, this was before the Panamera, when Porsche’s only other models were the 911 and Boxster. Now, the Cayenne is on the third generation, and continues to be a best-seller for Porsche. So, if you want a Porsche that can easily be reckoned with as your sole family vehicle, check out this 46,000-mile 2020 Porsche Cayenne S from our inventory. It’s got a punchy V6 under the hood, plenty of tech features, and is a sharp looker too.
The Porsche 911 is on nearly every automotive enthusiast’s bucket list. This iconic rear-engined rear-wheel drive sports car was introduced by German automaker Porsche in September 1964. Its unconventional drivetrain layout and air-cooled engine quickly gained it a cult following. Throughout its life, the 911 has retained its iconic teardrop silhouette and rear-mounted engine, although that switched to a water-cooled unit in 1998. So, if you’re on the hunt for a Porsche 911 from a relatively modern era, consider this 2017 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet. Coming from the 991 generation, this car has seen a healthy 73,000+ miles in its life so far, which is a testament to how enjoyable it is to own and drive. The car comes with up-to-date servicing as well, showcasing that it’s been cared for in the appropriate manner, making it a great buy. Two keys are included in the sale.
Porsche’s 911 may be the German automaker’s signature product, but it was far from their sole one. Over the years, Porsche dabbled (and continues to dabble) in other models too. The 928 was one of these. Produced between 1977 and 1995, it was a front-engined V8 grand tourer. The 928 received the European Car Of The Year award in 1978, and was highly praised by the automotive press at the time. That’s why you shouldn’t miss out on getting your hands on this 1986 Porsche 928 S, with just 76,500 miles under its belt. It’s an excellent modern classic to own and drive.
Modeled straight after a concept car, Larry Shinoda’s Mako Shark III to be precise, the C3 or third-gen Corvette stunned America when it hit the stands in 1968. Here was a car that traded the C2’s dainty looks for something truly muscular and futuristic. No surprise, then, that a C3 Corvette is on many a petrolhead’s list of ultimate must-haves. Therefore, we can fulfill one person’s dream, by offering this 1971 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray for sale. With a reported 18,559 original miles, this car is truly a rare fish to catch.
With Jaguar Cars recently rebranding to mixed reactions from auto enthusiasts, it’s a great time to remind ourselves of their greatest hits from the past. One of these is the XJS grand tourer. Produced between 1975 and 1996, the XJS is widely regarded as one of the most iconic Jags ever made. Its flying buttresses and grunty V12 engine all make for a superb driving experience, and one heck of a weekend cruiser. That’s why we’re glad to offer this 1992 Jaguar XJS V12. The car has covered 94,231 miles so far, and has reportedly undergone some recent maintenance.
Chevy’s fourth generation Corvette ran between 1984 and 1996, and was responsible for a major shift in America’s favorite sports car’s persona. The Corvette gained new, angular styling, a digital-style dashboard, more power, and enhanced handling. Mercifully, the much-loved pop-up headlamps were retained. Then, a high-performance variant called the ZR1 was introduced in 1990. The ZR1 drew heavily from Britain’s Lotus sports car maker. Enhancements included a new LT5 V8 engine, larger brakes and sportier suspension tuning. This makes the fourth-generation ZR1 one of the most sought-after neo-classic Corvettes. Here’s a great example up for grabs right now, a 1991 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 with just 69,000 miles on the clock. It’s got a rebuilt engine, while all info is as reported by the current owner.
