“When folks look at my Ford GT, I tell ’em, the most amazing thing about this car is that little blue oval on the front………. It’s a Ford!!!”
“I love these so very much, and that winter scene photo reminded me of a similar photo of a friend’s rally race car fairly well burried in the snow after sliding a little too wide in a corner.”

“@ctalisman
Thank you bud. You have no idea what this car means to me. Money aside I always wanted one when I was a kid and a friend of mine had one once and would always wear blue socks because of the car. Just wonderful memories with this platform in my head.”

“That’s me with the seller. I believe we were snowboarding at Mt Hood that day. What a beast of a vehicle! It hauled many people to Mt. for a number of years. Great memories!”

“I owned a J-car with V6, they were better and more reliable than they get credit for. Chevrolet did a great job styling the Z24, love the cowl-induction hood. Those tint headlight covers are pure 80s nostalgia, I sold hundreds of them back in the day.”

“This car was my dads for about 40 years. When he died my brother brought it to California where he did a massive overhaul. Forgetting the money, this Jaq has memories that fulfill a lifetime! I drove it twice, once on the stage of a charity fashion show and another when at a polo match in town Albert , my dad, had to quickly leave to get a friend to the hospital. He drove in the 4th of July parade for years; might have over heated a time or two. He tried to teach my 15 year old son to…”

“Great to see this notable car was recovered from the theft unbruised. As the owner of a Hotchkis equipped 72 challenger with a 408 stroker, Whose done 2 Hot Rod Power Tours in it, i can say these are great performers on hiway or in the twisties. Recommend trading out to Recaros for us full bodied guys!”

“So many great options this week!
That said and cars aside, the one that got me was for the story, not so much the car. That’s a tall statement considering my self avowed love of Packards, which is well know here. And this one is a real corker! Oh, and the Delahaye is stunning too.
I chose the 1917 Packard owned by a young man so sadly lost in “The War to End All Wars.” The family was so devastated they couldn’t part with it, yet they couldn’t bear to see it either. In storage for forty…”

“Years ago, I had coffee in San Francisco with a venture capitalist from Sequoia. Over conversation, it came out that we were both really into Porsches. I was telling him about my Blue Turquoise 993 that I was (and still am) really proud of. He said that he also had a 993. He asked if I wanted to take a look at it out in the parking lot. Of course, I took him up on the opportunity, but what I saw was really unexpected. It was a 993 Turbo S in this color, covered in mud. He had over 100,000 miles…”

“I commented earlier about operating these at the Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Training Center in Bridgeport CA. They are very easy to drive and we accumulated thousands of hours on ours. They are extremely well engineered and very reliable. They were maintained by our own mechanics and did not require them to attend additional technical training. The rubber tracks last a surprisingly long time as long as they are not run on concrete or asphalt too often. We did not baby these things, they…”

WERA22 commented on No Reserve: 2022 Honda Odyssey Elite by Stay Tuned
“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…”

“I would have seen this car take pole Vancouver Indy. Never missed a day of Indy CART when we had the series in Vancouver. What experiences! Those of us that are hardcore racing fans should count ourselves lucky to see have these cars run. I fear for open wheel racing with the growth of hybrid/EV. You just cannot substitute internal combustion and the screaming revs , the smells, the vibrations deep in your chest .
Magnificent car, this example. And the absolute top of the heap for its…”

“Jacques Villeneuve is from my home province of Quebec and is a legend in these parts for having won the F1 Championship in ’97.
His father was Gilles, was one of the most electrifying F1 drivers ever. 1982 R.I.P.”

“I drove one of these on the Lotus Factory test track, a phenomenal car. This has the touring suspension which makes it a nice daily driver. I did not drive an Emira with the sport suspension but from what I hear it is still very streetable. I have a friend with an Emira so far the only repairs are software updates.”

“The 330 GTC has always been a favorite of mine. And the 512BB. When I was first working out of college in the early ’80’s my wife and I honeymooned in San Francisco and I dragged her to Ferrari Los Gatos, and there on the floor were my two dream cars, a 330 GTC sitting next to a 512BB. I remember them being in the $25 – $35K range? And thinking, I’ll be able to afford one of those. Unfortunately life intervened and prices for these cars increased but I was finally able to realize a dream…”

“Thanks to all bidders. I fell in love with the 904 when I first saw one in the 1980’s. I think it the most beautiful care design ever. Thats why I had to have the Beck 904. I started discussing the car with Chuck Beck in early 2020, and pulled the trigger in October of 2020. It was a 3 year build process, and I visited the factory many times during the build. My wife was involved too, and picked out the interior colors. I think it turned out nicely. Thanks for all the positive comments.”

“The 505 wagon, IMHO, is one of the great longroofs. They endure rugged conditions in Africa without complaint. The 4 cylinder engine is about as indestructible as they get. Cargo capacity is unmatched. Yet the ride is so so comfy. Best seats anywhere. The video shows it off well.”
