    “Hi this is Phyllis Yes. I bought the car back because I couldn’t sleep thinking

    “Toyota really built them well back in the day. Not only that, but they’re not too big, not too small and look good. New owner will be happy. GLWTA”

    “I own the same car, even down to the 1592 twin cam and automatic transmission. It was built 6,028 cars later than this one, currently has 178,408 miles, and is our daily driver. I got it from the original owner’s family, and am technically the 4th caretaker. Since I also specialize in Fiats, I have serviced it mostly from new.
    We take it on club tours, and it’s comfortable at an indicated 70+ mph. In 2024 we won worst in class at the concours d’lemons in Seaside California, and last year we…”

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

    “Of course, the whole 250,000 Auctions Milestone was all anybody could talk about at the Grounds for Divorce. Lucinda started promoting it the minute the listing went live, offering a Two-Fer on Texas pecan pie and free Folgers to anyone who showed up wearing a Bring a Trailer T-shirt.
    Hank over at the Lucky Lady Lounge had a similar promotion going, but the T-shirt had to be wet and there were considerably fewer takers. Ultimately, Earl from Earl’s Salvage Yard and Formalwear took home the…”

    “OK, I’ve been meaning to write this story for awhile now, and so now is the appropriate time to share that story.
    I remember in the early 2000s when all the trade rags showed the new Mustang. they were beautiful. I would periodically go and test drive them. I remember once driving a GT with a 3.73 rear end and a 5-speed manual and that thing had some git up and go!
    Where I live, they have a car show every MLK weekend. They had one of these Bullitts on display and I wanted one.…”

    “As the owner of a 73 1600 Touring, these are fun and useful with the rear seats folded down lots of cargo space they are a few inches shorter than sedans and have a more aerodynamic windshield angle. At a 02 meet up they are rare.

    “Rode my BMX Mongoose to the local 7-Eleven who had this in the store. A Cherry and Coke mix Slurpee, a few runs on Pole Position and some Big Leage Chew for the rest of the afternoon. Life was good.”

    “I’m presently fortunate to own a 72 365 GTC4 myself.. I can tell you that there are not many 50+ year-old vehicles that can cruise the highways at 100+ miles per hour, while prancing gracefully with cold air conditioning and as smooth as a modern day car ….This vehicle is truly bliss! and way undervalued.”

    “This car is one of the best. I owned it almost 10 years. It really is one of the best. Owner maintains it imperceptible.”

    “OK let’s get serious here.
    What a lot of us often don’t realize when we look at something like this is the enormous amount of time, engineering, design, and late night haunting representing thousands of hours by dedicated people to develop and refined a complete and functional performance car.
    You are not just buying the parts to make cars, you’re buying an entire history of what it took to build the cars.
    So…if you are contemplating building your own cars, this is an excellent way to…”

    “I own both a Ghibli and a Daytona and although I really like the Daytona the Ghibli is my go to car for long drives or if I anticipate stop and go traffic. Both cars have beautiful lines. The Ghibli is more reliable and more user friendly. The steering wheel can be adjusted up/down and the seat back is adjustable. No such luck on the Daytona. This car has power steering while the Daytona feels like a truck at slow speed.
    The Maserati V8 has tons of low end torque while the V12 Ferrari needs…”

    “@KD303
    Thanks for chiming in. When a stand-out car like this one is sold, then disappears into a collection, or resold several times the “Freude Am Fahren” or in other words, the magic it possesses cannot be spread to another enthusiast –or more importantly — to the next generation who will (hopefully) and enthusiastically carry on. These are things that keep me awake at night.
    Given the low mileage — hardly more than break-in miles — covered over the past nine years, I was…”

    “I’m a Poncho guy and have owned many over the past decade. I presently have three, in my collection. 1960 was an oddity for the Pontiac division, it was in between the split grill of 59 and 61. It was also the first year of the eight lug wheels. That said, I remember my Dad and his buddies coming home from a fishing trip in a 1960 Bonneville coupe. The trunk was full of fish and ice. Look at the size of the trunk, you could only imagine, how many fish there were. Thanks for the memories and…”
