Yesterday’s comments of note: A Practical Look

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

“Ok
So while we were setting up Rally 1
Mike Z who ran the Saleen shop floor set up a red door complete with gurney bubble on a small dolly door stand. For display and option for people coming to have your door converted.
Of course vin 1314 / signature car owner / Me wanted it that day to swap on my red car for the event!
The door was display only because it was a blemish / defect door and not complete , hence the parts missing on this door!
I think Bony had the first bubble after Gurney…”

“This seems to be an outstanding example of one of these rare and truly extraordinary cars. I had my ’15 V12VS Coupe (Sportshift III) out today. People obviously differ regarding what they want from a car, but for me, it really doesn’t get much better than this among modern cars. In addition to all the things that make Aston Martins special, the V12 Vantage S is an absolutely fantastic thing to DRIVE. The engine — performance, smoothness and sound (not sure any car made in the last 40 years…”

“The Torqueflite/rear axle upgrade is brilliant. Bet this dream mobile has easy cruise speeds now, with better economy and crisp shifts to match. Colors, options, upgrades – doesn’t get any better – GLWTA as if that wish is even necessary!”

“This is my previous car. Oh how I loved this car. Way too much fun. So hard to find one in this condition. Love the Recaro seats you added! I’ve owned 6 CRXs – some were DX models and some were Si models. As a tall guy I loved the DX models without the sunroof for the extra headroom! Seller is a stand up guy – GLWTA!!!”

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

“Absolutely wild that this is an original owner car. I have to imagine that it’s very difficult to part with it after all of this time. Best of luck with the sale, it’s beautiful, and clearly has been loved.”

“I wake up today a little sad knowing that I have to part ways with my old girl. But I’m also excited knowing that someone out there is going to be able to take her in, put her to work and enjoy everything she has to offer.”

My dad is in 24 hrs care.
What’s one last ride worth?”

“Got my drivers license when my dad bought one of these in 1963 used. I never got a ticket or bent it, but saw the speedo tick 130 on the Medford viaduct one Sunday morning early, lifters clattering away when I reached the end! Fun car in the day!”

“I bought one of these and tuned the ECU to go 50 mph. Madness Autoworks sells the upgrade.”

Abarth67 commented on 2026 Fiat Topolino Dolce Vita

“Side markers are correct for USA spec cars. Euro spec cars have the “bullet” side markers.
Marrone Colorado is one of the best colors on these cars. Just outstanding, as is this example.
Having owned two of these cars, I can say that they are wonderful to drive in every respect. With proper servicing, they are as reliable as a Honda. They are not easy to work on and quite expensive for repairs and service.
Expect $10K on a major service and $2K for tires. My current car, 14633, sits for a…”

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

“Getting close now!
We told you about Bill’s event raising money for Special Olympics. It’s called All Italian Day and it’s October 11th this year (https://www.alfaromeoassociation.org/content.aspx?page_id=4091&club_id=233974&item_id=2902395).
For several years we designed the t-shirt for the event. One of the last years I did the design, I felt we had to honor Bill and this wonderful car.
One of the amazing ARA members, still has a new XL shirt and is willing to gift it to…”

“Honored to be the next caretaker of this incredible M3. Huge thanks to the seller for the thorough presentation and to everyone in the comments who shared their knowledge. I’ve wanted the right E46 M3 for a long time, and I’m excited this Laguna Seca Blue example will be joining my garage. It will be well cared for and enjoyed. Thanks again!”

DailyDrivenPorsche commented on 2001 BMW M3 Coupe 6-Speed

“Can’t believe the options on this one, it has factory Recaros before the ‘is’ was a thing. Plus the sport wheel, sunroof, and it’s in one of the best blues that BMW put on their in the 70s.
This is a neat e21!”
