Is That Yellow? 1972 Porsche 914 2.0

Prices have already shot up in just the past couple years. Remember Doug Malkewicki's one-owner car? It went for a song ($6700 in 2013). Now you're lucky to find a solid driver for $9k. The later 2.0L cars are approaching $20k. We're too late!!!1!
I think that is supposed to be Gold Metallic – L97G , but it's kind of dirty and reflecting a lot of green grass.
No title, no sale…
CT doesn't require a title for vehicles over 20 years old.
Correct
Looks like I'm going to have to wait until 2048 for my Boxster to become desirable. Shucks.
To me, the 914 has always been the best looking Porsche.
If that is original paint, the car appears to be in outstanding rust-free condition. For me, that makes this deal interesting. Currently-not-running status however makes it a significant risk. This would be a tough one. Does the "2.0 kitted" engine affect value, vs an actual original 2.0 car?
I've always been a fan of these. The lines are perfectly simple and I dig the minimalist interior. Black on black please… with a dash of panache.
