    enricojillforlenza commented on 1980 Porsche 911SC Coupe

    “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…”

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

    “Nobody in Fort Stockton ever knew exactly where Harold and Eleanor Whitcomb were headed when they left, and after a while they stopped asking. It had become as dependable as church bells and the Dairy Twin closing at nine. Every Sunday, sometime after lunch, the old Mercury wagon would ease out of their driveway with a picnic basket tucked behind the front seat and Harold’s weathered county highway map folded neatly beside him. They never seemed to have a destination. Yet when they returned,…”

    “Great road test; beautiful sound bathing the cabin as you work the gears…no weird clunks, just straight-up British Sports Car excellence. GLWA! Given the bids already, I won’t be seeing this in my Virginia garage any time soon, alas.”

    “I drove a 2012 manual Fit for three years before I lost it in a flood trying to cross an underpass. They float extremely well by the way.
    It was SO much fun to drive. It fit two bikes in the back with the seats up. Storage was best. I’ve not had a similar size car since that was as enjoyable. The Fiesta ST is a close second but the FIT had better (less) torque steer when burning the tires in the wet. It would get rubber past 2nd gear on moist roads.
    Indestructible….unless you drive it…”

    JoeMore commented on 62-Years-Family-Owned 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Split-Window Coupe 4-Speed Project

    “Great looking e28 that has been dialed in the way all e28s should be dialed in, starting with euro bumpers and properly lowered suspension. 👏
    You’d be hard pressed to find better wheels for an e28 than the 16″ BBS RX wheels.
    The crack free dash is also a bonus, as is the top end motor refresh just a few thousand miles ago.
    The Recaros alone are worth between two and five thousand dollars in case someone wanted to replace them with e28 sport seats.
    Refurbished A/C and the new heater core…”

    “We had ’74 Manta, one of our most dependable and enjoyable cars. Terrific handling and clean styling. Kept it for 9 years and 80K miles. The drive trains in these cars were solid.”

  • A Look at yesterday’s comments of note

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

    “A great car with a great story! I’m often surprised how wing cars are optioned. For example, the C-21 Center front-seat cushion and folding armrest with column automatic, seen here. Deluxe wheel covers? I guess I assume it’s a class of car that would naturally be more loaded up.
    Of course their existence as the manufacturers were pushing the limits of NASCAR homologation rules ensures they are inherently fascinating. Producing them had nothing to do with marketing them for profit.…”

    “Beautiful Square body! I have had 4 over the last 4 decades and have an 85 GMC Sierra Classic 3500 that is a Fall Guy replica. These trucks are imo the best trucks ever made. Someone will be getting a beautiful example and it being the first year of production is even a nicer feature. GLWTA👌👌👌”

    “@64_S1 Not only can you drive this back home to the Midwest, you SHOULD! As one who has driven my S2 Elan coast to coast and border to border, I highly recommend it, with a couple of caveats. First, as you noted, install the side windows. Even with the top down it will keep the wind from beating you up. Then, when you put the top up, only if needed for major rain of course, you will stay relatively dry.
    Second, do not use interstate highways unless there is no reasonable alternative. As the…”

    “These are great cars. Very nimble. Really high build quality. 2.8 is silky smooth. I bought a 99, new and still have it. I can’t bear to part with it. There are things I like about it better than all the other Audis that I have.”

    “This car always stuck out with ONE simple metric that I read back when it was being tested… 50mph to 75mph, it beat out the Testarossa and Porsche Carrera 4.
    I think we know a hybrid RAV4 today could probably do this, but in period it blew my socks off to know this.
    May this Swedish Testarossa be enjoyed for many more years. GLWTA”

    “Blue is such an underrated color for Ferraris. Most shades of blue look great on Ferraris, specially on larger, front-engine ones like this, the 612, or the FF.”
