Open Road

OK, you guys know I'm a nut for these little Acty's, but this combo of the Attack version (dual-range trans + locking diff) featuring a matching DTV Shredder (which I never heard of before) has my spidey sense tingling

This is most likely a different car, but way back in 1999 we flew to AZ to visit family over Christmas and as a hedge in case planes started falling out of the sky due to Y2K....we looked at a Silver Rose '88 944TS (aka 952) exactly like this one to possibly buy & drive home;

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1988- ... urbo-s-48/

It was kept at the Sottsdale airport and wasn't currently licensed/insured, so our less-than-ideal test drive consisted of bopping around the side roads within the grounds.
I kind of dug the funky color combo, even the trippy 70's strobed Sport Seat interior....and that car would apparently have been a decent fun investment to enjoy.

That's a purty car.......

A bit of seller's remorse on this one. Sold yesterday for $125K. In January, it was Reserve Not Met at $155K from the same seller.

I built this Pocher F40 kit back in the early 1990's, as a fun Winter project.
I never expected to see one on BaT, but I really should start expecting the unexpected nowadays;
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/f40-scale-model/
This one I will follow for sure!

Dang, the Pocher F40 model sold for $1850!
From the comments, unbuilt kits sell for much more

This bike-powered little roadster looks like a blast, but it might be a challenge to get licensed for street use;

Pretty cool.

Cool car, some paint work + physically in Germany may hold the price down a bit but will still go for big $$$

Porsche, where simply not installing all the standard equipment is really expensive.

Very cool little bike, mucho dinero per McQueen prior ownership

Ex–Steve McQueen 1967 Honda CL77 Scrambler

Just an update on the above little scrambler....... 115K!!!!



When I bookmarked it I honestly thought about how cool it would be to own something small from the King Of Cool and thought putting a bid in......

Love it.
$115K is like $60K in 2019 money don’t forget.

Wow I bet that thing weighs less than the fender of a new 4-series!

"Wow" being the operative word describing anything about this car...

How about a VW bus camper trailer conversion?

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2017- ... r-trailer/

The ultimate tow vehicle would of course be a matching VW Wesfalia, but it had better be Subie-swapped or the like to be able to tow it

Sometimes I just don’t get it. One is an ICON build and the other is not. But I just don’t see one being worth $275K more than the other. Must be like Singer Porsches.

Nice! I'd really like a Sega Rally 2 machine. It's the only arcade game I know of with a hand brake.

1963 Ferrari 250 GT Lusso











https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1963- ... -gt-lusso/

There would be others but these things have been climbing my list steadily as I've aged...... something about class, speed and style.

I watched the drive video of that 250 (330?) GT Lusso, to live vicariously through the pilot.
Already at 1.2 million, the sky is the limit it seems

There was a lady near here that had one. She drove her kids to school in it everyday. I went to see it once in her garage and she fired it up for me. Such a sweet sound.

Sold for 1.4mil

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2011- ... gt3-rs-29/

Every GT3 and RS i sold since 2007 is worth a lot more then when I sold them LOL.

Someone buy this for me, please. I promise to pay you back!....it's no 100k + car, in fact relatively cheap.

Wonder that too, guess we'll see if what it's worth to someone, or not.

Should be fun to watch.

The last RS200 Evolution sold on BaT went for over $500K.

Will be an interesting market indicator how that does.

With winter coming this could be a hoot!

They are cool but boy oh boy are they unreliable… I have driven these multiple times and they are FUN and much more modern https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clio_V6_Renault_Sport

Never knew Renault followed up the R5 with other mid engine cars.

That thing looks very cool too! I had no idea that even existed..... probably can't get them in the states yet.

A friend imported a R5 Turbo2 brand new, it had to be shipped to a shop (in TX, IIRC) to get Federalized before it could be registered, but he got a MI plate and drove it quite a bit.
He spec'ed the mid-level (185hp, again IIRC) tune and when it ran right.......it was amazingly quick

Holy Frijoles, you just never know what will pop up on BaT!!!

When I was a little kid, my dad the train nut had a ride-on hand-crank-powered railroad large oval track layout in the back yard called Yard Bird.
I never saw one like it before or since, so imagine my surprise to learn they made both electric and gasoline-powered streamliners as well;

The hand-powered cars in blue are what we had...
