Purchased new from Porsche-Audi specialists Lichtsinn Imports in Highland, Indiana by an Illinois resident in September of 1972. This 914 has stayed in the Midwest region moving from Illinois to Kansas, and then to Missouri all with the same, original owner. This Porsche comes with its original window sticker, owner's manual, maintenance booklet, emissions booklet and wiring diagrams, 3 keys, and title copies back to 1974. This eye-catching 914 with 1 owner showing only 73,723 miles will definitely make its next owner very happy!
