    A few of the comments that stood out to us yesterday:

    “Gleaming Black shows off so well MG’s first “envelope body”. It’s often said that a black car is the hardest to do right and the toughest to keep clean, but when both are done to this level the result is quietly stunning.
    This car looks to be Very Well done in every respect.”

    “Very peak Honda.
    This will probably outlast their 2026 offerings.”

    “Fun looking D1.
    Nice modifications, and it appears that the seller has had a lot of fun while keeping it in fine running shape. Though lots of miles, I bet that the next owner can get years more use if they stay on top of issues as they arise.
    A five speed, a 300Tdi engine, and a first series Disco….what’s not to like?”

    “The original owner of this Maserati was Stan Nowak, more famous as one of the earliest of the Ferrari historians here in the States. He told me decades ago he took delivery in West Nyak but sold it just a few months later to raise money for an early Ferrari that had recently been uncovered.
    He told me to keep an eye out for it and said it would be easy to find by the chassis number “502.”
    He passed away not long thereafter and I never did track it down until about ten years ago when I…”

    “Literally the perfect Jeep to ‘bomb’ around in. The detail-overload here is fabulous!
    To paraphrase Forrest Gump, Life is like Bring A Trailer. You never know what you’re gonna find.
    WOW.”

    “I am beyond excited. My dad owned a 1974 TR6 in this same color when I was a kid. I learned to drive on it. It is going to a good home.”

    “Wow !! Brings back wonderful memories as I learned how to drive on my Dad’s ‘60 Bonneville convertible ..He was a “car guy”having several Chrysler letter cars before I talked him into the Bonneville. Our neighbor had a ‘59 Bonneville convertible and he took me for a ride on a warm summer night with the top down …When he hit the gas and I heard that VROOOM of the carbs opening I was smitten !!
    He told my Dad to make sure he ordered the Tri/Power option to match the power of his…”

    “Many years ago i used to take quite a few road trips and generally would find any excuse i could make up just to do so . There was always a destination , but the journey was the reason , just a love of being on the open road and feeling young and unencumbered . I always used to have my “Road Trip” tape which i had previously recorded and was quite long and had a wide variety of music to listen to on the road but the same song , first up on the tape , “Vehicle” by The Ides of March always…”

    “The 996T manual has become a gold mine, and it’s super fun to drive. What more could one want in a 911 Turbo, the quintessential sports car of the modern era? Enjoy ownership in safety and good health.”

    “Wow, what a stance on this spectacular F100 bumpside 4×4. The two-tone color scheme is awesome! Interior is nice and the engine is clean. Truly a cool build here!”

    “The gap between the order date and the serialized date on the Marti report reminds me that Ford workers went on strike in the fall of 1976.
    I had factory ordered a new Econoline 150 around the same time as this Bronco and I took delivery in January of 1977. My van was the same Midnight Metallic Blue as this Bronco. A Great color”

    “I’m the previous owner of this rig. We used it primarily as a rolling billboard for our RV Campground… had our logo on the side. Really drew attention. I can tell you it really drove better than I expected, several hundred miles freeway and highway with no issues. I did add LT tires on the back as well as the booster shocks to help with rocking/swaying. It’s much lighter than it looks, when i bought it three of us picked it up by hand and loaded it on a trailer.”

    “Clearly this was an emotional purchase. This is SAAB Number 19 for me, started with 3 cylinder 2 cycles, a pile of 99’s including a 78 Turbo, and then on to the 900s. My wife converted from GM to SAAB with an 83 Turbo before we were married then a 87 Turbo that we brought both daughters home from the hospital in. Daughters still driving 9-3’s we bought them in high school.
    My wife really really wanted this car, so as a good husband I had to get it done.”

    “On vacation in Europe with my parents in 1965 we were in traffic next to a Ferrari similar to this. Have a vague recollection of the paler blue metallic, a far stronger impression as the traffic cleared was the howl as it disappeared down the road.
    My father didn’t give chase in our Austin 1100.”

    “This is my old car, and can only say it’s one the best cars I’ve ever owned. These cars were overengineered by Toyota and it shows. Every button, switch, etc all feel perfect. The car drives as smooth as butter. And if you know these SCs, the silver on black is very rare. Most are grandma tan inside. When I opened my garage every day, I always found myself wanting to drive this instead of my Aston Martin. Whoever buys this will be very happy, and get thousands of fantastic miles… actually you…”

    “I learned how to drive stick on my Dad’s ‘85.5 White 944 Turbo with phone dials. We loved that car.
    That motor was so fun and always sounded so great.
    It just about killed my pops when he sold it, but he was getting older and wanted something more comfy and lux and was getting hard for him to get in and out of easily.
    That was 20 years ago now (wow!) and every time I fire up my GT4, I think about that car.
    Beautiful 944. These cars are so fun and so special.”
