MontanaBroncos commented on Coyote-Powered 1973 Ford Bronco

“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.”

“She’s a beauty, the subtle differences that come with the Sport Edition add up to make the final years of the 3rd gen really special, especially when wrapped in a great color like Millennium Silver Metallic or Thunder Cloud Metallic.
Being one owner west coast well documented is the icing on the cake and guarantees an exciting ending……and let’s not forget No Reserve!”

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

“I don’t think Frankenstein is an issue in Aston Martin world. Many are upgraded to Vantage spec, many DB4/5/6 are built to 4.7 Vantage spec. Like Panteras and aircooled Porsches, there’s no shame in that. I think it’s only in the US musclecar world that originality is a MUST. I think that’s because there were so many made and so many customised in the day, that originality is their only rare virtue. But with a car that only 3,500 were made in a 22 year production run, sympathetic modifications…”

“When I was 14 I bought a 1968 Super Bee for $100 cash. Paper route money~
Mom was not impressed”

“My cousin bought this exact car in 1974 and we jokingly called it the pumpkin …Nobody’s laughing today as this color is one of the most desirable on a C3 !”

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

“So an observation of a very obscure Honda factoid. This car has the dealer installed, recall program Takata black plastic guides still in place on the front seat belt latches. The Honda and Acura recall notice back then stated there were complaints about the front seat belts not latching properly. This was Takata’s solution. There was a rumor published at the time saying Honda’s president attributed the problem to us Americans spilling our soft drinks into the latches. Funny, he was…”

BG2639 commented on No Reserve: 1990 Honda Civic RT4WD Wagon 6-Speed

“As a Viper enthusiast, I’ve always found myself drawn to the unique, well-optioned examples, particularly the cars that came through the GTC 1 of 1 program.
I tend to break the Gen V ACRs into three general categories. First are the more race-focused 3-speaker ACRs, with 456 produced. Second are the factory Special Editions — GTS-R, VooDoo II, Snakeskin, 1:28 and Dealer Edition — which account for 214 cars in total. Finally, there are the 290 GTC ACRs, a little over 100 of which…”

“Too bad the days of cheap, simple, practical, reliable 4 bangers without screens and a bunch of annoying tech are gone. An endangered species indeed. GLWTA!”

Charleetuner commented on No Reserve: 1998 Honda Civic DX Hatchback 5-Speed

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

“This 599 is an earlier production as in the later production for 2007 the ceramic brakes became standard. Also, Ferrari jacked up the base price from $258k to $321k base price. Significantly increased the cost. These cars are appreciating fast. F-1 transmission is a very nice transmission in my opinion even though general public prefers the clutch version. Good luck.”

Snowhill commented on 17k-Mile 2007 Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano

“A layman’s view.
In 1987, at the age of 27, I quit my job and travelled to Europe for my 1st time for a 6-month adventure. After skiing a few areas in the Alps, I made my way north, as far as Bergen, Norway. Summer had arrived, and I wanted to have some beach fun.
The section on France in the Frommer’s Guide had many pages on the Mediterranean Coast, but few on the Atlantic.
I decided on a road less travelled, the Atlantic. To my pleasant surprise, I discovered a magnificent area…”

Hoppy18 commented on 21-Years-Owned 1962 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz

“IMO, the ‘stacked headlight’ GTO versions are the definitive GTO.
Very cool car. Unique color, mostly see red, black or blue.
Would love this.”

Lord_Balfour_IV commented on No Reserve: Tri-Power-Equipped 1965 Pontiac GTO Hardtop Coupe

“Yes for those who don’t know Vic Skimants was a leading competitor in the SCCA E production class for many years. The knowledge gained on the track was applied to his builds which for those who have them understand well.”
