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

    “I made a comment on this auction before an epic 10 day trip to Italy. I’m back. The auction is still going!
    I was in northern Italy (Milan and Lake Como) and guess how many Ferraris I saw?
    One. One solitary 296… in ten days.
    My son: “Dad, where are all the Ferraris?”
    Me: “In the USA.””

    “Mezger engine block was literally built to be wailed on at redline for 24 hrs straight, it’s nearly impossible to destroy it, you have to be intentionally holding it past redline for probably 1 hr+.
    Reminds me of the old cash for clunkers video where they emptied the oil pan on an 80 series landcruiser, put it in neutral, and floored it. It took like 20+ mins at past redline for the engine to give out with no lubrication.”

    “I have and would drive any 200 cross country. Bring a couple spanners 10mm 13 mm pop into advance grab some coolant and oil, bring an extra thermostat and you should be good to go.
    If coming west stay off 80 at night when rainy lol. 200’s are the best when on point.”

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

    “My father was born in 1936. He joined the Navy and became an engineer. He is the most talented and gifted man I have ever met. He did tons of work on cars for himself, fellow Navy-men, and friends or family. He is struggling with dementia. Some days are hard. I visited him yesterday, and I showed him this ad. Just by pictures he called out the heads and different motor. The intake. He commented on reading about, back in the day, the stainless steel 36′ Fords that were made. He pointed out the…”

    “When I first started playing with Gran Turismo, there were no Porsches. Thankfully, legally these aren’t. Voila! I spent countless hours hotlapping the Nordschleife in one of these rare beasts. Great to see one here.”

    “One of the best daily drivers of all time. A wagon with a supercharged v8. The six-speed manual is the cherry on top. GLWTA!”

    “My first car was a black 1987 325es. I loved that car and always told myself I would own another E30. This one is perfect.”

    “Every time I see one of these I can’t help but think so fondly of Ed “Lancia” Levin and his remarkable knowledge surrounding these cars.
    These really are spectacular cars in every respect. Once you drive one, you never forget it. @seller needs no introduction here so bid with confidence. These have been woefully undervalued compared with similar era cars, but I believe all that is about to change as more people wake up to US landed examples like this, and the amazing amount of fun one can…”

    “Former owner of this car, here. This was one of the best running and funnest driving 911’s I have ever owned. The E model has smaller numbers, but probably is the best driving street machine out of all the early cars. 1972 model to boot! For a little background, this car was purchased brand new by an airline 747 captain living in Tiburon, CA. Years later I find myself working for that same airline. A few years back I was flying with a guy on a multi day trip. We were shooting the breeze while…”

    “I’m a tech at Colonial Toyota in Milford and saw this car come in the shop for service and the pictures do not do it justice on how incredible clean this car is, it’s in damn near showroom condition. Our whole shop was infatuated with this car. Our service writer Dwayne, was worried that it wouldn’t get done in time because we couldn’t stop drooling over it 😂 GLWS”

    “I have to admire the audacity and the laissez faire attitude! “…also notes “moderate damage” from a July 2014 accident in which the vehicle overturned” suggests that the owner approaches this Civic as Jeremy Clarkson approaches Reliant Robins.”

    “1988 I’d be taking this home. Mine was blue and white. Like the man said earlier. It would make novice look good. 66 years old still a novice lol. Roll on wheelies, check. Slam second you better be hanging on and sitting foward. The only race I ever lost was to a Ferrari. Smoked him off the line. 120 I looked in the mirror. Too late, just then he blew by me like I was standing still. At 150 came around the next bend. He was just a red speck. Going around the next turn. Ah to be young. Slowly…”
