    NBoost commented on No Reserve: 1987 Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe

    “I owned an ‘85 nearly identical to this. I drove it the way Carroll Shelby intended. I quickly installed the Mopar Performance logic module and after getting the timing dialed in and an AutoMeter boost gauge installed, I was even more ready to “Go Like Hell.” So, one Friday evening in the spring, I was laying down rubber in first and second gear at each stop.
    It must have took a while for the officer to catch up from following the squealing Euro T/A’s, as I don’t believe he ever saw…”

    “Automatics are great – First, generally driven less spiritedly over their lifetime. Second, the automatic is actually very good. My auto on back roads, 2nd gear could go from about 25 mph to 70 mph. Often with a group of other 02s, I would be pushing the car in front of me that was modified. Third, the auto works while you find that 5 speed that is wider than a 4 speed and what else is wider? The tunnel in an automatic. No hammer needed for installation.
    My next 02, I will look for an…”

    “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…”

    “I own a manual 6 speed ’07 NC. These are just fabulous vehicles. Nothing goes wrong. Certainly one of the finest engines Mazda ever built. Gobs of fun driving top-down and a true value fot the $ spent. New owner will be happy. GLWTA”

    “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.”

    “Another one that I helped build at Torslanda in Goteborg. Some had a note under the dash: built in Sweden by a yankee. I was the only American out of supposedly 46 nationalities working there”

    “Formula for years, worked in secrecy with Mercury and designed the 500 Super Sport Crossover expressly for the new 600-hp Mercury Verado V12.
    It was the first boat fitted with these innovative V-12 motors that had a fixed powerhead and a rotating lower unit.
    I saw the original factory black hulled SSC at Soverel Harbor in Palm Beach Gardens when it first hit the water,
    Spent some time talking with the crew, admiring the boat and the serious Mercury motors the likes of which I’d never seen…”

    “I love this car – the color is one of my top choices – and that interior … so cool and unique – I have a ’74 GTS and as others here have said the driving experience is special – so low to the ground with the motor humming on your shoulder – hypnotic – GLWTA”

    “There are two of us in the USA (that we know of) that have Turkis Coupes, me being one of them. No matter where I drive, I get thumbs up and comments about what an amazing color this is and how well it compliments the smooth curvy lines of an E9. This example looks nearly perfect, and the seller is THE source of E9 expertise. You can buy this car with the utmost of confidence, and join Club Turkis! You won’t be disappointed! GLWTA!”

    “@JMKClassic BRAVO! Thanks for sharing and reminding me how awesome these cars really are. My first car I took delivery Dec 10th 2004 after watching the Ford commercial “THE ONE” over and over and had to have it. My first drive was to take a friend, who said I couldn’t scare her, a drive through Memorial Park that leads to the highway. As I got on the entrance ramp to the 610 Loop, I took it to 60 in 1st gear and when I hit second, at 60, the tires LIT UP!! I was amazed and hit 3rd at about 110.…”

    “I started with Cadillac in 1957 and after working on and around the 57,58 and 59 models I thought, at the time, this was the most beautiful Cadillac we had EVER built. I still fell that way today. Lucky me that I had the opportunity work on and around them. Beautiful fit and finish and they ran so well. I helped out a few times in the Cadillac Executive Garage where these cars were prepared and stored for the factory retail deliveries. The new owners were treated royally including a personal…”

    “It was slow at the Grounds for Divorce this morning—the kind of slow where it had been at least twelve hours since Mayor Goodman said something stupid, leaving the regulars to endure a conversational drought.
    Talk drifted to Christmas.
    “I only want three things this year,” Chad from the Piggly Wiggly announced. “A million dollars in cash, the souls of everyone who won’t return their shopping carts to the corral, and a kitten.”
    A noble list, if a little heavy on…”
