Porsche 914 Can Am Limited Edition (1974)
for sale

Price: US $19,850.00

Description:

Re-listing because previous buyer failed to pay after selecting buy it now. Please bid our buy only if you intend to follow through. Not fair to me or others interested in the vehicle.
This 1974 Porsche 914 LE is in great condition inside and out. Reportedly they only made 1, 000 total LE units, 500 of which were in this color. After reviewing the LE registry it appears there are less than 10 in the US that are even close to the condition of this vehicle. There are a few more overseas, but this is clearly one of the few left and they RARELY come up for sale. The only reason I am selling is that I have another vehicle in mind that requires me to part with one of my 4 Porsches.
LESS THAN 1% OF ALL 914'S EVER BUILT WERE LIMITED EDITION CAN AMS (1, 000) - EVEN RARER THAN THE LEGENDARY 914-6 OF WHICH 3, 351 WERE SOLD (MORE THAN THREE TIMES AS MANY)
The body on the car is in excellent shape with recent paint. All mechanicals work and the car starts, idles, and runs perfectly. There are no leaks anywhere under the car. The interior is in very good condition and includes brand new Coco Mats, replacement sun visors, a new center console unit, new interior light, custom car cover and many more bits that I will provide with the car. There is one small crack in dash top (picture included). I also have two sets of the Porsche side stripes, one of which I just recently had custom made to match the correct paint code but have yet to put on the car.
Petrolicious is quoted as saying Finding an original example might be a challenge--especially one of the 1974 Limited Edition models in Can-Am racing series livery.
A little bit about the history of the Porsche 914 LE
Porsche Cars North America (PCNA) states that there are two essential features required of all authentic Porsche 914 Limited Edition cars. 1.) The exterior paint color scheme of either U1V9 (which this one is) or U2V9, and 2.) Optional Equipment Package M-778 (Can Am Equipment). Both of these items appear on the Certificate of Authenticity (COA) that I have for the car and the importance of documenting these two required items cannot be overemphasized.
This Porsche has a black (L04I) body / sunflower yellow (L13K) accent - 'Bumblebee' The corresponding paint number is U1V9. Black body paint color was always an additional cost special option on standard 914 Porsche cars, but was included as a standard component on the black 914 LE cars.
This LE is equipped with the Can Am Optional Equipment Package M-778. A few of those details are listed below:
914 Can Am front spoiler Specially-designed for the 914 Can Am Equipment Package, the front spoiler is a unique part on the 914 Can Am cars not originally available on standard 914s. The spoiler is of much better quality and detailing than the common aftermarket 914 LE front air dams of similar shape, and is fully molded on all surfaces. I
914 Limited Edition side stripes: Before the introduction of the 914 Porsche Can Am cars, Porsche 914 side stripes were of the 'positive' lettered design style, as an optional dealership accessory and in black and white only. The negative-lettered 914 Limited Edition side stripe design, which is the most popular 914 side stripe even today, was designed and produced as a special component of the 914 Can Am Equipment Package.
Alloy Wheels: Mahle (4-bolt) cast aluminum wheels, including the spare in the front trunk, with painted wheel centers in the matching accent color. This car also comes with two extra rims.
Appearance Group Equipment: Foglights, center console with clock, oil temperature and voltmeter gauges, leatherette steering wheel, leather shiftlever boot, and center seatpad. The Targa bar vinyl and lower bright metal trim were deleted and bumpers are painted, not chromed.
2.0L engines: All 914 LE cars have 2.0L fuel-injected engines.
