Here’s yesterday’s comments of note

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

“Some final hour Sport evolution M3 fun facts.
The sport evolution is the 3rd evolution of the E30 M3 homologated for racing. It was produced for just 3 months in 1990 resulting in 600 models. 500 models were required to evolve a race car at the time. Only 204 Red Sport evos were ever made.
This car is 100% original in terms of parts. The modifications are exactly as it left BMW.
The Sport evo was the only E30 M3 to feature a 2.5 Liter S14 engine making 238 HP.
Some easy to spot visual…”

“In the 70’s (in college), I had a summer job at Stern-Hasskell ( high end dealer ) in the Bronx NY. That is where I saw my first and only Mangusta. I never forgot it. It is as stunning today as it was all those many years ago. Thanks for the memories!!”

“My husband has been wanting a Porsche since he was 8. This is a dream come true. Thank you all!”

“I’ve seen these cars in person when they were new at Straman’s over next to the Orange County Airport. The workmanship is superb. No one believes me when I say that there was a convertible CRX.
More importantly than that, no one believes there was EVER a teddy bear wheel made for any car – and I’ve told stories about them on a Volkswagen Cabriolet I once had. I have only ever seen ONE at a tire dealer. Never a complete set.
This car embodies every story I’ve ever told about cars made of…”

“Congratulations @vettboy1 !!!! You’ve just landed an incredible Family Truckster. I hope it brings you as many smiles, memories, and adventures as it did for me and my family. Enjoy the ride to Wally World!
A huge thank you to everyone who followed along, bid, and left such kind comments throughout the auction! I really enjoyed talking about the car and laughing at all the movie quotes. I hope the Truckster continues to bring joy and smiles in its next chapter. Cheers to all of you, this…”

“My grandparents bought a Yugo new (I want to say it was a 1987). I was about 13 or 14 years old, few years later my single parent mom working 3 jobs to raise 3 kids needed a “reliable” car and bought the Yugo from my grandparents. I was 16 or 17 by now and getting into my driving days. The Yugo manual transmission is the car that I learned in. After I got my license, I drove the car often and one day rolled through an intersection and crashed into an old lady. I was devastated that I wrecked my…”

“I saw this car in person at a show several years back, this is a very well kept and well curated example that presents at least as nice in person as it does in photos.
A notchback 900 is on my list of Saabs to own, I don’t care if it’s a 2 or 4 door. I’m hoping one day I’ll come across another admiral blue over blue cloth sedan like I had in college.”

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

“This is a sweet ’69 El Camino L78… no vinyl top! Could have been used to drag race or simply used to pull a boat down to the river. With the pin-striping that was removed, my guess, it was sparingly used to launch a Sanger flat-bottom boat with a built 427.

“I had the absolute pleasure of being parked next to this vehicle at the BaT concours d’elegance in Elkhart Lake on Saturday evening, and I must say: this car somehow looks even better in person. I am in and out of a ton of aircooled Porsches in a professional capacity, and this may be the nicest 911SC I’ve ever seen. It’s obvious after talking to the seller that they took their time to refurbish the car the correct way – with the love and care this fine example deserves.
Somebody is going to…”

“There were two icons of the late 1980s for me: the Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk2 16V and the Lancia Delta Integrale 16V.
If you grew up like I did in the 1980s there’s a good chance you were obsessed with one—or both.
The GTI was the benchmark hot hatch, while the Integrale was the rally-bred legend that dominated the world stage. Different personalities, yet both became automotive icons that defined a generation of enthusiasts.
It’s so cool to see a well-sorted GTI 16V again. Seeing one…”

“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…”

Tobyallen commented on Ex–Jacques Villeneuve 1995 Reynard-Ford Cosworth 95I

“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.”

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

“10 original cheetahs completed by Bill Thomas. 7 comp, 3 street. There is one untouched totally unrestored survivor from that original production run, and it is in my collection. The King Cheetah street car here has a very unique history and is obviously extremely well preserved as well. Good luck!”

CC350 commented on 1966 Bill Thomas Cheetah Coupe

“When I first got the car, I was always under the hood or underneath the car, learning as I went, and it became the car my girlfriend — now my wife — and I took everywhere. A lot of great memories were made.
Life moved on, and the car ended up parked for close to four decades. Recently we decided to bring it back to life, get it running again, and return it to a period correct state. It’s been rewarding to hear it fire up and drive it again after all those years.
That said, my…”

trevmo commented on 50-Years-Owned 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 4-Speed

“This was the first car I ever bought new from a dealer when I was 20. I was driving a beat up old Ford F150 with bad linkage that I had bought for $150. The dealer offered a $5k of discount for anything you could push pull or drag in, so the Ford made his last journey.
My father had a terminal diagnosis at the time and provided the remaining $10k needed to make sure his little girl would have a new car after he was gone.
This car got me through those early years of having lost both…”
