    4 or 5 speed makes a difference I would think.

    Regards

    Some want a 4 speed. Others want a 5 speed. Some don't like the 4 speed. Some don't like the 5 speed. No real value swing in either.

    Nice car! With the rise of 911 prices, more people are looking at 912 and rightly so. Better balanced than a 911, and an engine strong enough to have fun, and except for 2 cylinders missing, it's all Porsche.

    I do meet people who are disappointed by the VW engine sound, but a wonderful car to cruise around....a soft window at 50K sounds like a great deal to me.....

    These are great threads. It really shows the enthusiasts' passion for these SWB cars. Just an FYI, for those proclaiming a painted dash , three gauge 912, is the cats's meow......NOT , true. The MORE valuable car is the three gauge black dash, SWB 912. Same is true for the glass window , 912, SWB, MUCH HIGHER LEVEL, of demand, than SWT.

    All great possessions to own and drive.

    I disagree. When I was shopping for my 912, 5-speed cars were getting a premium. I haven't seen any change in that metric.

    r-mm,

    I know you want green gauges but how about a green car instead?

    I'll be posting a '68 coupe here next week. Very rare Metallic Green.
    AZ car that we've been maintaining for over 25 years; über nice driver.

    Probably low 40's?

    My early '66 black dash three gauge in a similar condition, but with a painted dash, would be more collectible and valuable.
    A '68 hard window Targa sitting next to a '68 softie and the softie is the less valuable car?
