I once read an article I think was by Bruce Anderson (or was it Jim Shrager) both people whose writings I respect - on the 914 market and this was years ago. One of them said the 914 market was turning into the way the 356 market used to be, and that it was time to get in.
I never thought the 914 was a 356, nor a 356 a 914, but both cars I respect for what they are. The 914 market will always be kinda funky I think, high sometimes, lower others, and then as years go on, they will become desirable - desirable to the people that like them. To me my view of 914s sort of changed with 911 ownership, as I still hold the 911 up there as the ultimate Porsche (aircooled versions). A 914 will always be a sporting type car, and their handling is probably better than any 911 will ever hope to attain (with certain drivers), but if you like 914s you should get in if you want one. Don't be worried about them being an investment, or getting in the market because it's gonna skyrocket. A 914 will never be a longhood in terms of market value, but maybe that's a good thing.
