A Mid-Engined Icon – The 1974 Porsche 914 2.0 Targa
Roadsters are a very special species of car. Their heyday coincided with the economic boom starting in the 1950s. During this era of new global prosperity, they were responsible for leisure, joie de vivre, and a touch of irrationality. In a roadster, the driver is on display, enjoying the panorama and the thrill of driving. These are cars for individualists—wild means of transport that are essentially derived directly from motorsport.
At the end of the 1960s, Volkswagen and Porsche introduced a very modern variant at the height of the economic miracle. The daring lines are particularly well complemented by the Targa roof. The 914 offered here is a rather late example from 1974. As a result, it not only benefits from an improved gearbox and reduced susceptibility to rust, but it was also ordered with the then relatively new 2-litre four-cylinder engine.
This engine is around 40 kg lighter than the six-cylinder version and still delivers only slightly less power with its 100 hp. The interior also includes the “Comfort Package” of the time, which features, among other things, the three additional instruments on the centre console.
This 914 has been in the same ownership for 40 years. It has been maintained by a brand specialist throughout this period and has covered only around 50,000 km in that time, making the low total mileage of just over 74,000 km entirely plausible. The colour, interior and the optionally available alloy wheels from that era have never been renewed, making it an exceptionally authentic car. An appraisal from 2024 confirms that this roadster, last veteran-inspected in 2023, received a condition rating of 3. The vehicle was exported from Switzerland to Germany in 2023 due to a change of residence and now has German vehicle documents.

Auction hammer price and minimum bid
The bid is accepted by the highest bidder after the minimum price or higher has been reached, either after the bidding period has expired or at the moment when no further bids are submitted and the auction is closed by Emil Frey Classics.
Acceptance of the minimum bid – “Sold”
When the bid is accepted and the minimum bid (minimum price) or higher is reached, a legally binding purchase contract is concluded between the seller and the highest bidder.
Bid accepted below the minimum bid – “Reserved, not sold”
If a bid is made at a price below the minimum bid (minimum price), the vehicle is considered “not sold subject to reservation.” Vehicles that could not be sold during the auction or for which the minimum bid was not reached can be renegotiated after the auction in consultation with the consignor or owner. In such cases, Emil Frey Classics acts exclusively as an intermediary between the potential buyer and the consignor or owner, unless it expressly acts as the seller itself.
