    “Toyota really built them well back in the day. Not only that, but they’re not too big, not too small and look good. New owner will be happy. GLWTA”

    “I own the same car, even down to the 1592 twin cam and automatic transmission. It was built 6,028 cars later than this one, currently has 178,408 miles, and is our daily driver. I got it from the original owner’s family, and am technically the 4th caretaker. Since I also specialize in Fiats, I have serviced it mostly from new.
    We take it on club tours, and it’s comfortable at an indicated 70+ mph. In 2024 we won worst in class at the concours d’lemons in Seaside California, and last year we…”

    “Formula for years, worked in secrecy with Mercury and designed the 500 Super Sport Crossover expressly for the new 600-hp Mercury Verado V12.
    It was the first boat fitted with these innovative V-12 motors that had a fixed powerhead and a rotating lower unit.
    I saw the original factory black hulled SSC at Soverel Harbor in Palm Beach Gardens when it first hit the water,
    Spent some time talking with the crew, admiring the boat and the serious Mercury motors the likes of which I’d never seen…”

    “I love this car – the color is one of my top choices – and that interior … so cool and unique – I have a ’74 GTS and as others here have said the driving experience is special – so low to the ground with the motor humming on your shoulder – hypnotic – GLWTA”

    “There are two of us in the USA (that we know of) that have Turkis Coupes, me being one of them. No matter where I drive, I get thumbs up and comments about what an amazing color this is and how well it compliments the smooth curvy lines of an E9. This example looks nearly perfect, and the seller is THE source of E9 expertise. You can buy this car with the utmost of confidence, and join Club Turkis! You won’t be disappointed! GLWTA!”

    “This takes me right back to the ’90s. If you didn’t have a B16 or B18 swap, you wanted one. B16s, B18s, Frankenstein builds this is exactly what we were doing back then. Very cool.”

    “These early GM hardtops (Buick and Oldsmobile also had this roofline on certain models in 1949) are both rare and a landmark design. Great proportions. Glad to see one on the market.”

    “The 991 GT3T reigns supreme. Many folks say the 992 is superior. When you sit in a 992 you stare into the soulless abyss of darkened computer screens.
    I don’t care how good a 911 is if it makes me feel like I’m at work staring at a computer screen!”

    “I figured it was about time I got a GS – having grown up with DS’s starting in 1962 when my late father, the first industrial hygienist in the US, brought home, a 58 DS 19 – the early series which was as complicated as they could get. Funny thing was it was a trade-in at a Studebaker dealers shop in Salt Lake City Utah, the middle of nowhere back then. but dad, although a chemist, had a hankering for mechanical stuff and built large gasoline powered model airplanes when he was a kid.
    Even…”

    “I will say this with great confidence. This coach is a unicorn. I can’t predict outcomes but I know from thousands of miles on the rv highway that this rig is the real deal. The new owners will have both a show piece and an amazing coach. In the rv world these coaches in well preserved form are showstoppers.”

    “Great to see such an excellent example of the car that reset the standard of what to expect from a small car. Not enough people understand how the Accord raised the bar for attractive design and basic equipment. The rustproofing material is most typical of any car sold in western Pennsylvania, where salt use and rust were commonplace… probably instrumental in keeping this car on the road and on your screen today.

    “OK, I’m gonna cry now. This is literally my dad’s car. So many memories with this vehicle. He bought it from the old man in ferrari in the first dealership. It was the dealership owner‘s car.”

    “@Jimily @07SGT1978 Actually, a 302 cubic inch engine is a 4.9L, but Ford’s marketing people very wisely rounded up. I’m pretty sure Mustang fans think those trademark 5.0 badges are a vast improvement over 4.9, and I know Vanilla Ice thought so!”

    Z282SLO commented on No Reserve: Original-Owner 1986 Ford Mustang GT Convertible 5-Speed

    “It always amazed/surprised me that if you bought a Cadillac of that era, the convertible top from the inside exposed the bare metal frame and had no headliner but the modest VW came standard with a substantial padded cloth inner liner that concealed the frame structure while reducing road noise and increasing cabin warmth and comfort.”

    “Just a big thank you to the entire BAT community for making my first sale such a pleasant experience. If the winner of this auction enjoys owning this car half as much as I did building it and showing it off, then there be 2 very happy guys-the seller and the buyer. Thanks again.”

    “Just a quick note from many years of experience with the various GTO continuation cars from Terry Hoyle and Rod Jolley.
    Absolutely no one executed better examples ever. They were freakishly correct even down to the most minor details.
    At various times, I had access to both original Series One, 250GTOs and 64 GTOs as well as having a Terry Hoyle copy in the showroom. They were indistinguishable from each other and would fool even the best experts if they did not see the chassis…”

    “Been on BAT for over 11 years, Been going to Pebble Beach for over 34 years, This is hands down the very best presentation of any car I have ever seen here… If you haven’t watched the video about its history. Its a must. BRAVO to @CharvetClassics… And Best of Luck with the sale, This is an absolutely exquisite piece of American History…”
