    “Wow! Owner of touring #9 here. Hope to see a second B8 4.6 touring come to the US! If the new owner is US based, please find me. Happy to connect and provide steer on how to maintain this thing in the US. I just refreshed the hydraulic system on my car after getting it back from the BMWCCA Foundation museum.
    The unique thing about the Alpina B8 touring is it’s the only e36 touring chassis that got the m3 rear subframe reinforcements welded in as well.”

    “This is SW, this car belonged to me for quite a while. I purchased it as a 4 speed A/C car. It was extremely nice, straight with a beautiful undercarriage, which was the main reason I bought it. The Paint was nice but I am very picky so we disassembled it and had it blocked and resprayed. It drove amazingly well. After a few years I sold it to a friend so I wouldn’t take it apart and make it a restomod like all my others. He had a 5speed installed, drove it some but since he owns over 75 other…”

    “Absolute stunner. Certainly one of the top three motorcycles of all time; likely the ‘top one’.
    Exquisite restoration. This can, and ought, to be ridden.”

    “I’ve driven this car & own a w108 Matt fitted a 113k drivetrain to. If you have the means I highly recommend it.”

    “I must commend the team at Revology on an absolute triumph of packaging. It is one thing to shoehorn a Gen 3 Coyote into an early-model engine bay, but the way this has been engineered is incredibly clean. You actually left plenty of room to work on the car, and the plumbing is pure art. It takes a truly discerning eye to differentiate this from a factory-spec 1968 Fastback until you pop the hood.
    The juxtaposition of eras is beautifully executed. Catching the modern Ford door-ajar chime in…”

    “If you haven’t ever heard an F355 with a Tubi exhaust in a nice decently long tunnel run, you should. The 355’s have a Flat plane crankshaft, and with a Tubi Exhaust has a Formula 1 sound… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jchd1Sj6PsM If you are in a hurry, you can start at 30 seconds. If the link does not work you can go to Youtube and search for “Ferrari F355 tunnel run” (by Fast Terrific) Not many cars can give you goosebumps when you hear them, this one does.”

    “Fun reading the comments here. I’ve owned many 99s over the years. My first car was a Topaz Yellow ‘76 GL 4 door with 90k miles that I bought in 1980 from my local Saab dealership, Reinertsen Motors. It was $3000, but I traded in my 1 year old Motobecane moped, so net cash was $2400 (plus tax). I later traded that 99 at Reinertsen Motors for a ‘74 Carolina Blue 99 LE like this one because I preferred the utility of the hatchback and it looked more up to date at the time as the 900 was…”

    “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.”

    “Some final hour Sport evolution M3 fun facts.
    The sport evolution is the 3rd evolution of the E30 M3 homologated for racing. It was produced for just 3 months in 1990 resulting in 600 models. 500 models were required to evolve a race car at the time. Only 204 Red Sport evos were ever made.
    This car is 100% original in terms of parts. The modifications are exactly as it left BMW.
    The Sport evo was the only E30 M3 to feature a 2.5 Liter S14 engine making 238 HP.
    Some easy to spot visual…”

    “In the 70’s (in college), I had a summer job at Stern-Hasskell ( high end dealer ) in the Bronx NY. That is where I saw my first and only Mangusta. I never forgot it. It is as stunning today as it was all those many years ago. Thanks for the memories!!”

    “Combating the maintenance scaries with an impressive log of care.
    From VW’s golden era. This being on the lot next to the MKIV .:R32 and V10 TDI Touareg is as good as it’ll get.”

    “Hello BaT! I’m the builder and seller of this E30, and I’ll be here throughout the auction to answer any questions and provide additional photos or videos if requested.
    This project began as an effort to build an electric E30 that felt like a proper driver’s car rather than simply an EV conversion. Nearly every component was selected with that goal in mind—from the Tesla Plaid drive unit and custom battery system to the suspension, brakes, and chassis upgrades.
    After the build was…”

    “By the time this particular Fulvia was built, Fiat had owned Lancia long enough to have begun incorporating some profit-motivated changes. I spent a lot of time at the Lancia display at the Turin Auto Show in 1972, and following that wrote an article for the LANCIANA, the American Lancia Club newsletter. Some things I noted were “…the paint and overall finish is better than ever. Suspension bits are stampings now, rather than the nice hardware that we’re used to.. Plastic clips replace the…”
