“The good old days. Sit down with a sales person and start checking the right boxes to buy the car that’s built just for you.”

junkman commented on 1966 Chevrolet Impala Convertible 396 4-Speed

“Beautiful car, tremendous history. Made all the more valuable in my eyes by not being a static display. Too many “experienced” cars are doomed to a life in a cage, never again to be heard or seen performing the purpose they were built for…driving with spirit. Thanks, and good luck.”

“Kudos for installing the flathead. Yes, the Chevy is a great engine, but they don’t have to be in everything, especially a Model A. Perfect hot rod. GLWTA!”

“I absolutely LOVE photo #321: the huge stack of renewal stickers! Most of us peel them off once a stack of five or so piles up, but to leave them all on there for so many years took dedication and a degree of skill.
This is a such a cool package, even without the amazing ownership history. Only things I’d do is get the A/C working, and replace that modern CD player with something vintage or at least vintage looking.”

CarFoolLane commented on 48-Years-Family-Owned 1973.5 Porsche 911T Targa

“This Car and Driver segment was significantly developed at the 928 Press Launch which was held at the Le Mas D’ Artigny Luxury hotel In St. Paul, France in February and March of 1977. Automotive journalists from around the world attended to experience the cars in person and on local roads. There were 12 cars prepared for this event known as “Press Cars” and these are very unusual and unique iterations of the 928. They carry the first full 10 digit 928 VIN numbers produced. These cars were…”

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

“We currently have a 250 SWB in our care that was built in direct collaboration with the exceptional team at GTO Engineering. Prior to joining Mohr Imports, I had the privilege of running GTO Engineering’s Los Angeles operation for several years and visited both the GTO House and restoration facility on multiple occasions.
I can’t say enough positive things about the craftsmanship, attention to detail, and passion that goes into these cars. Having had the opportunity to work alongside both…”

“A Nova Wagon with dog dish wheels and a V8 paired to a 4 speed. It doesn’t get a better than that! GLWTA”

“Gated V8 over V10 with paddles! Do you agree? Love the Mugello Blue Pearl Paint! Beautiful!
GLWTA”

SingleClutch commented on 11k-Mile 2009 Audi R8 Coupe 6-Speed

“Such great trucks, went a decade with minimal styling updates. And the Vortec Chevy 454 is a LEGEND! And if it is really as clean as it appears, someone is going to get an awesome ride. Only thing it is missing from my ideal 3/4 Suburban build sheet would be barn doors in back, but the tailgate is what makes pregaming work too.”

“Best car on the Panther platform ever made, and this one is very nice. I probably won’t be there at the end, but I’ll start it off.”

“Co-worker got one like this in 1976, for his $8,000 company car allowance. Hope he kept it!”

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

“I bought my 1st 300SL roadster in 1987, and sold my last one in 2018. I have loved the model since I was a 1st grader in 1957. I found the 300SL to be remarkably bulletproof when sorted by an excellent mechanic. I 1st met Scott Grundfor in 1989. Because I lived on the East Coast, most work on my 300SL’s was done by Paul Russell, in Massachusetts. My ownership experience was greatly enhanced by my membership in the Gull Wing Group, founded in 1961, and dedicated to the preservation, and…”

Last_Roadster commented on 1957 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster

“Nine-liter Viper power with a six-speed manual and a transfer case? Look out SRT Trackhawk! As a kid I was intrigued by Bill Harrah’s daily driver Jerrari, the Wagoneer with a Columbo V12, but this has more than twice the HP! Amazing, GLWTA!”

Valiantjim commented on Viper-Powered 1979 Jeep Cherokee Chief 6-Speed by Vigilante

“Just shy of 50 years old, and the design is still stunning. And mechanically, an easy car to maintain and a fun car to drive, especially in this original configuration. One of the landmark Ferraris that will always turn heads wherever you drive it. GLWTA.”

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

“Ok
So while we were setting up Rally 1
Mike Z who ran the Saleen shop floor set up a red door complete with gurney bubble on a small dolly door stand. For display and option for people coming to have your door converted.
Of course vin 1314 / signature car owner / Me wanted it that day to swap on my red car for the event!
The door was display only because it was a blemish / defect door and not complete , hence the parts missing on this door!
I think Bony had the first bubble after Gurney…”

gtjoey1314 commented on No Reserve: 2005-2006 Ford GT Door w/Gurney Bubble

“This seems to be an outstanding example of one of these rare and truly extraordinary cars. I had my ’15 V12VS Coupe (Sportshift III) out today. People obviously differ regarding what they want from a car, but for me, it really doesn’t get much better than this among modern cars. In addition to all the things that make Aston Martins special, the V12 Vantage S is an absolutely fantastic thing to DRIVE. The engine — performance, smoothness and sound (not sure any car made in the last 40 years…”
