I know nothing about either cars but i wouldn't be alarmed at the prices. 914s never move quickly especially 1.7s and both have a few issues including rust here and there!

That one does look good in green with Fuchs on it!

The dinged passenger side sill is not a deal-breaker but the rusty bits might, although vendor claims the battery area is sound. It really needs a good viewing before buying and take someone who knows these cars (I can volunteer). It looks like it has potential, I love the Delphi green paint shame about the bumper tits. If it really has 100 rwhp and the body's not too bad then could be a bargain.
