The Porsche 914/6 was the high-performance, Porsche-built version of the 914 platform, a joint venture with Volkswagen. Produced from 1970 to 1972, it ditched the standard VW-derived 4-cylinder engine for a proper Porsche powerplant: the 110 hp 2.0L flat-6 from the contemporary 911T. This transformed the car's character, creating a true mid-engine Porsche sports car with exceptional balance and a distinctive sound.
Collectors prize the 914/6 for its rarity and pure driving experience. With only around 3,338 units ever made, it's far scarcer than its 4-cylinder sibling and the 911s of its era. Its lightweight construction and mid-engine layout provide handling dynamics that many enthusiasts prefer over the rear-engine 911, making it a celebrated driver's car with a direct connection to Porsche's racing heritage.
Buying Tips
- Rust is the primary concern. Meticulously inspect the area under the battery tray known as the 'hell hole', along with the longitudinals, floor pans, and suspension mounting points.
- Verify its authenticity as a true 914/6. Check for a VIN starting with 914043, 914143, or 914243, and confirm the presence of 5-lug wheels and a front-mounted oil tank. Conversions from 4-cylinder cars are common.
- Insist on a pre-purchase inspection from a classic Porsche specialist. The 2.0L flat-6 engine requires expert evaluation for issues like oil leaks, worn chain tensioners, and proper carburetor tuning.
- Confirm the car has its original, numbers-matching engine. A period-correct but non-original engine significantly impacts value, so documentation and verification are key.
