Very tempting early 928. Even a 5 speed with a pasha interior. And located in Canada, which usually keeps the bids down.

Unfortunately, I’m still at least a couple years away from having enough free time to work on this. I do however, have a son in Ontario with a job modifying vehicles and access to shop space….

I saw one of these around Dream Cruise weekend a few years ago, and it was a very nice looking kit;

Not going to be me, either. Everyone that I've discussed this with tells me what I already know - "That would be a terrible idea".

All those people also already saw me soak a u-boat full of money into a previous 928 over the course of 10 years. They're right of course, but that doesn't make me want it any less.

The 1978 928 project ended up selling for $9,100. Would love to see it in a finished state.

The 1951 Split Window 356 is part of a collection of 6 Porsches (5 classic) being sold on BaT. This is Part 4 of their "Gruppe B" offerings. There are links to parts 1-3 in the first paragraph of the link below. WARNING: Clicking on those links will lead you down rabbit holes full of great cars.

Just posting this because I'm blown away with how beautiful it is. And it also depreciated like a MF! The car cost $233K new and sold for $113K with 6,000 miles on it. Depreciation of $20 per mile driven.

I always liked the Mazdaspeed version of the Miata, but even with the turbo it was still 60hp shy of its direct competitor the S2000.

And 112hp less than my Solstice GXP with the dealer-installed GMPP tune. While the Solstice isn’t as good as the Miata in most ways, being able to light ‘em up is still a lot of juvenile fun.

I remember considering a 164 back when they came to the USA, and Danny Sullivan was driving for Alfa on the Indycar circuit.
We instead ended up with a 944, that we enjoyed for 20 years!
Good times

Can't fault you for choosing a 944. It's 780 better than a 164

I have an Italian market 164 with a 2.0 liter turbo V6. A friend of mine has a 968, and we've been talking about racing each other since the cars put out very similar power, but using completely different approaches. Small displacement turbo V6 with FWD versus a large displacement naturally aspirated 4-cylinder with RWD. Should be a fun experiment!

Similar to the way those Aston’s depreciate, the Maserati MC20 is just taking a nose dive on resale. I can’t believe the prices that these are selling. They are gorgeous to my eyes. Perhaps they are a bum to drive.

^^^ No kidding. A one year old MC20 is going for the same price as a new Corvette Z06.

That sure is a beautiful car though. I saw one the other night at the shop where I hang out for Friday happy hour - it was like a dove blue color. Really a spectacular looking car. And watching that Chris Harris Top Gun video in the BaT thread makes me think it has the chops to back up the looks. If'n I had the wherewithal, that car would be very high on my radar.

Cool. Never knew these were offered in a non-turbo version, so was shocked when I saw that it has only 107 HP.

Right, so the Shelby Dodges we owned in that time period were mostly all turbos but I believe the gauge clusters were similar (can't say 100% for sure).
Beyond the Speedo and Tach on our turbo L-Bodies there were GAUGES for Fuel level, Coolant Temp, Voltage and Oil Pressure.

If it were Porsche, you’d pay extra for less to get a “lightweight” package.
