I wasn’t going to post this car because I found it on Ann Arbor Craigslist with the following description:
“re: porsche 914 v8
http://detroit.craigslist.org/mcb/cto/3142377657.html
This is totally bogus. This 914 was built by a guy named mark. It has 400 hp. It is not for sale on this listing. I am assuming some guy is mad at his ex, and put her phone number on a very inexpensive supercar that he doesn’t even own. Help her stop the calls by flagging the linked ad… or call her and leave a message. I’m sure a million people already have. I did.”
That was enough to warn me off of it and not recommend it to my readers plus I don’t like the taillights. But then reader Dave pointed me to the same car on eBay. I’ve been following the auction which has now crossed $9,100 in bidding. You would think the reserve would have been lifted since the car is advertised on Detroit’s Craigslist for $8,995. But it has not. Yellow flags are flying in my book. There is a name and phone number on the Detroit Craigslist posting if you are so inclined to learn more.
