In my opinion, the 914 market has a very devoted crowd, which means they are very emotional about their cars. And, the 914 (unless it is a -6) is also a pretty cheap car that is less than $4000 for a clean car. Another $3000 would not change someone's fortune.

The combination means many sellers would just sit on a car and get some pleasure out of it instead of taking a low ball offer and let their pride and joy go.

If I were serious at sellng my SC and someone makes a $5K offer, I would tell him he can have the engine for that, because that is how much the engine is worth.
