Not the most loved Porsche, but I've always liked the funky looks. AA did an excellent job on this fairly rare Millenium series model (check out sold prices on Ebay!). I had intended to buy the Revell 914/4, but am glad I held out for AA's /6, though do wish it was the cool '70's Signal Orange instead of classic Silver. Norev is releasing a sealed version of the /4 in green & orange shortly.
The 914/4 was the Motor Trend Import Car of the Year for 1970. A joint venture between VW & Porsche, it was intended to replace both the Porsche 912 & the VW Karmann Ghia. The 914/6, like this AA model received the Flat-6 from the late '60s 911T.

Gavin,
Great model. I have the AA version in white however. Never saw the silver version.
FYI. I owned a 914-6, (triple black). I kick myself for selling it every time I see one.

Thanks very much. So cool that you owned the real thing. I can't even remember that last time I saw one.
2 guys in my high school had 914s, though both were /4s.

Prices for the 1/1 914/6 have sky rocketed in the last two years.
