“Great spot on the 2022 gearbox oil typo.
Our technicians during that time and during 2023 and 2021 records are all former trained factory Lamborghini guys. You can look them up!
As you can see both Motul and Lucas gear oil was used in 2021 and 2023, so I am very confident this is a “ShopWare” typo.
Our software system in the shop was very clunky until recently.
The former owner was very fussy, this is one of the best 1996-1997 Diablo Roadster examples we have seen. The car was…”6

“Man, already at $4M before I could get my comment in….
I want to thank the team at BaT for bringing us so far. It is amazing to cross the quarter million auctions milestone together.
And a big thank you to the @1600veloce team for helping us mark the occasion with this beautiful 288. Anthony gets so much well-deserved credit, but it takes the whole team there to do the amazing things they do.
And maybe my favorite part of BaT is that Lot #250,001, right behind this one, is a…”122

“I want to send a big congrats to the team @BaT for 250,000 listings! Kudos again to the team behind the scenes!
Our team was so proud to be a part of this journey.
@bringatrailer Randy I want to thank you for all the support and the fun ideas we have bounced off each other all these years. This listing like any listing, can be a bumper for an MG to a Halo Ferrari. It all belongs here. The best site, the best community.
We discussed what type of car we would want to list. Well here…”63

“These cars were so ahead of their time. Supercharged, intercooled, 4 wheel discs with ABS, IRS with adaptive damping, even pneumatic adjustable side bolsters. I still have my 35th anniversary 5 speed version, and it remains a pleasure to drive unlike most crude live axle domestics of the era.”

“I know that Singer, Gunther Works, and others have their devoted fan bases, but for me, nothing does it quite like a RUF, ever since teenaged-me read (and dreamed) about the Yellowbird in Road and Track in 1987.”

“I have had the wonderful privilege of knowing both Mr. & Mrs. GMCcoachguy for more than two decades via our mutual membership and involvement in the Gull Wing Group. Without question, the seller is one of the most amazing people on the planet. Honestly, there could not have been a better curator for this lovely GMC vintage specimen! Over the years, I have seen how this
motorhome has been cared for and where it has been stored. You could eat off the floor underneath the Coach or off the…”21

“These are great cars! I call it my cheaper AMG – 425 hp/385 torque but so much more reliable than AMG and no suspension issues like ABC. I found a tuner in Korea, swapped out the ECU and now have 455/400 in my 19 5.0 – last year for the V8 in the G80. I would say good maintenance, bid with confidence. GL
I get 24.2mpg at 90mph on level pavement in SD and MT, and the Lexicon stereo system can stand with the best Bose and Harmon Kardon!!”6

“Fwiw, the red key was introduced with the 999. It was for security purposes and allowed you to pair new black keys to the dash/ECU, as the model was the first to come with a factory immobiliser.
The 996 on the other hand, was still from the simple, analog, old school era. No red key. No digital dash. The only code that came with the bike originally was the mechanical code to get new keys cut, but how often do you lose all the keys to the bike to even need it?
Clutch plates likely fused…”7

“I was 13, accompanying my dad when he drove his ’76 308 GTB Vetroresina to Los Gatos Ferrari for a service appointment. I wandered into the showroom, saw the F355’s… and right smack dab in the middle of the room was this car. Not this exact same one, but an Azure Blue-over-Magnolia Esprit V8. I had never even heard of Lotus before that moment, but I was mesmerized. I sat in the driver’s seat, smelled the leather, saw the red V8 in back… and suddenly forgot that I was surrounded by yellow…”

“I have this near identical car. Patina’d sahara, warmed over M10, goldish wheels, mint interior, same rust spots, and even the same roof rack. Out of my small fleet, this one gives me more smiles per gallon than the rest.
Having an engine done by Korman is a real nice bonus. Ray has a great shop and is a top tier engine and restoration shop. Hopefully the next new owner can show it off at At The Vintage event in Maggie Valley this weekend.”6

“In many respects the Z432 is like the 911 Carrera RS 2.7.
Very rare, look nearly identical to their garden variety siblings and the high desirability is based all around the engine.
Having a production car in 1972 with a redline of 7500-rpm was insane and the technology that went into that cylinder head was something the Europeans were not even doing until the next decade.
To some degree Nissan did themselves in, as the L-series grew to a 2.8L, a modified L28 could easily outgun a 432.…”
