2.4L Flat-Six 914: When Porsche's Unloved Kid Gets a Real Engine
"The 914 is finally getting its due, mostly because people realized you can turn it into something worth owning instead of just tolerating."
— Revvly Take
This 1972 914 ditches the original 2.0L air-cooled four for a proper 2.4-liter flat-six backed by a 915 five-speed—the engine swap that finally made these mid-engine orphans feel like real Porsches. Steel GT bodywork, carbon-fiber targa, and a custom interior suggest someone actually drove this thing instead of treating it as a resto-mod poster child. Clean 914s with real powerplants are becoming harder to source.
