Old 996s are pulling strong numbers right now on BAT.

Thousands over fair value.

They made too many of those things to fight over. :surrender:

Nice!...a 911 coupe in really good condition for under 18k is a great buy(even being a tippy)! It sounds/looks great in the video. Let us know when you're behind the wheel.

I haven't been following what's up with the 928, are you keeping or?

I'll be open to selling it but only when I'm confident it's back 100%

MORE WEIRD STUFF to ponder, how about a rebodied (automatic) Miata that mimics an Aston Martin?

I'm torn though, as a 'real' AM Cygnet minicar is also pretty freakish and much less aesthetically pleasing;

One of the cars I learned to drive in was my dad's 1960 190D sedan.
It had a cream exterior and an ivory leather interior, the very definition of bland ;-P
But the 4-speed manual column shift kept things otherwise interesting, and it had an extremely tight turning circle.
If I close my eyes, I can still remember the very Germanic smell of the interior ( :thumbup: )

Anyway, I never knew a wagon version was ever made...so I find this to be especially cool;

I don't know if the day is significant, but looking at today's new listings there are a number of 956's being sold on 5/25. Some pretty nice ones actually. Also a 959 came on too if you're trying to find something to do with 2 or 3 spare million..

It might have been the same car but saw one like this in Charlotte about 4 or 5 years ago for $1.2M

I’ve always liked the Lagonda, but feel that owning one would be a terrible idea. Would make buying a cheap Porsche seem brilliantly conservative in comparison.

Yup, still my favourite Ferrari. It just looks.... perfect. Kinda like a 308 that hit the gym and packed on muscle.

As an analog guy the F40 will likely always be my favorite Ferrari, and I still remember the vitriol at the time for the 288 GTO as the test bed for things to come.
I don't even care that it was apparently Enzo's last approved (controversial?) directional move, that's for the Tifosi to sort out.

I think the F40 looks cooler, but I'd probably prefer to be behind the wheel of a 288. I like a handful of creature comforts.
My guess is that the 288 ends between $7.5M and $8M.

It's not original. It has no racing history. It has no celebrity history. It was in a FEMA flood zone.
