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

    “I’m a tech at Colonial Toyota in Milford and saw this car come in the shop for service and the pictures do not do it justice on how incredible clean this car is, it’s in damn near showroom condition. Our whole shop was infatuated with this car. Our service writer Dwayne, was worried that it wouldn’t get done in time because we couldn’t stop drooling over it 😂 GLWS”

    “I have to admire the audacity and the laissez faire attitude! “…also notes “moderate damage” from a July 2014 accident in which the vehicle overturned” suggests that the owner approaches this Civic as Jeremy Clarkson approaches Reliant Robins.”

    “This is a couple more pictures of the owner for 55 years. They both have had a wonderful life together, the stories they could tell!”

    “In 1967, my dad informed me that he had purchased, with my savings, 1960 Falcon with 60K miles for $325.00.
    While it would not have been my choice, I was excited to enter the world of independence from walking, bicycling and public transportation.
    The 144 ci engine didn’t last long with my heavy foot and the constant diet of re-refined oil I fed it from our local Site gas station.
    I found a 260 at the junk yard and that was a great improvement.
    The original radiator did not like the 260, so…”

    “Besides the provenance of RH and HA, this is an awesome spec – ’71 with Stroppe installed power steering and auto with lettered adapter. Exciting to have and driving the 4 turn steering offroad is awesome. Ask me how I know.”

    “My first car was a black 1987 325es. I loved that car and always told myself I would own another E30. This one is perfect.”

    “Every time I see one of these I can’t help but think so fondly of Ed “Lancia” Levin and his remarkable knowledge surrounding these cars.
    These really are spectacular cars in every respect. Once you drive one, you never forget it. @seller needs no introduction here so bid with confidence. These have been woefully undervalued compared with similar era cars, but I believe all that is about to change as more people wake up to US landed examples like this, and the amazing amount of fun one can…”

    “@sy1616 ………The 1956 Mercedes-Benz 300 Sc Einspritzmotor Coupe was special and important for its combination of cutting-edge technology, superior luxury, and extreme rarity, which cemented Mercedes-Benz’s return to the top echelon of global luxury automakers after World War II.
    Mechanical innovation:
    The “Einspritzmotor” (German for “injection engine”) designation on the car’s rear bumper signified its most important technical feature.
    Mechanical fuel injection: The 300 Sc borrowed…”

    “A United Airlines pilot that lived across the street from us when I was a teenager had a 12 cylinder E-Type coupe he bought new. Easy to look at and great sounds. But THIS car has all the modern goodies with no Lucas Electrics gremlins and all the modern upgrades plus a spotless and powerful Ed Pink motor. This would be the Jag I would own. Exceptional build and beautiful car. GLWTA !”

    “Thanks P 38. I went to college driving a new R1 with air-conditioning. And automatic. I dated.my wife in a red Avanti. Married in 1965 and sold the Avanti get a car with a bench seat for our daughter’ s car seat. I have known where my original car is but have tried unsuccessfully for 30 years to buy it. When this car came along, I said what the heck. I’m excited to have a supercharged car and relieve some old memories. That is a lot of what the old car hobby is about.”

    “I grew up in my family’s Pontiac dealership that opened in 1967. Crazy about high performance Firebirds & GTOs, especially the rare & special round port cars. From RAII in 1968 (356 cars), RAIV in 68 & 69 (1808 cars), 455 H.O. in 71 & 72 (5037 cars) and the last of the Mohicans, SD-455 in 73 & 74 (1296 cars). With over 4000 Pontiac dealerships back then most never acquired a single super duty during the two years of production. They were insanely hard to get. Our store…”
