mrliquidity commented on Supercharged 6.2L LT5-Powered 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe

“I’ve seen this beauty in person, and let me tell you—it’s been meticulously maintained and absolutely babied. The owner has taken incredible care of it, keeping it spotless inside and out. Everything runs smoothly, looks sharp, and feels road-ready without a worry. If you’re looking for a motorhome that’s been treated with pride and attention to detail, this one is a rare find. You won’t just be buying a rig—you’ll be getting peace of mind knowing it’s been loved and cared for…”

“What a lovely, and well driven example! Tasteful mods, and miles and miles of future enjoyment for the next lucky owner. I’ve owned my 97 C4S for 15 years, she just rolled 135k, up from 63k at acquisition. These cars are just such an experience, just so immensely satisfying to drive…and to own.
Good luck to the seller, and fair notice to potential bidders….well sorted, long term owner, well “driven” 993’s are more scarce by the year. This car will continue to turn heads, and…”

“Paul Newman lived across the street from me growing up. My dad got the same bike from the Studios and talked shop with Mr. Newman often.”

“I just had my ’72 4.5 overhauled…new injectors, hoses, belts, plugs, wires, coil…
Runs better than a brand new Caddy!!! So responsive yet regal to drive. Ice cold A/C. Dream car. They are fabulous when tuned. GLWTA!”

“A huge thank you to @pkatzakian (previous owner) for kindly getting these period photographs over to me. Following the discussion in the comments, Phil was able to send them through, and I’m delighted to be able to share them here with everyone.
These photographs show RT3-468 during Phil’s ownership wearing its California Cooler livery and add another documented chapter to the car’s history and provenance. It has been a real pleasure reconnecting with Phil after all these years and…”

“This is either the coolest thing ever built or the worst financial decision someone will proudly make”

Beans_Bacon commented on Ex–Cleetus McFarland Jet-Powered 2010 Chevrolet Camaro “Turbinaro”

“You’ve probably noticed that I’m happily bidding on this special Healey. Coming across such an untouched time capsule of a car is a real treat. We have a passionate Healey community here in the Netherlands (and even a very attractive Austin Healey museum), so I hope to restore this car to its original condition and preserve it for future generations. Kudos to BAT!”

“As a Kia enthusiast (yes, we exist), this is the holy grail. The looks you’d get for telling people what this is make it worth any expense. I’d rather have one of these over the Lotus version, just for that novelty. The stock drivetrain isn’t bad at all, but I can’t help but wonder how one of these would do with a modern Gamma 1.6 or 1.6T swap from Hyundai. In a way you’d keep it “in the family” but really liven it up. I don’t think there’s as many purists out there for the Kia version anyway.…”

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

“New for me as well! “Scorpio” caught my eye – I had an ’89 Merkur Scorpio from new for several years and really liked it. But it had a V6 which I think was also used in the Bronco. In an amazing coincidence, a co-worked had a Merkur XR4Ti, so we had the rare parking lot that had two Merkurs in it. GLWTA”

“Wow… just wow.
It has always been my dream to own a Clive Cussler owned vehicle. As Mr. Cussler created my all-time fictional hero, in Dirk Pitt.
To this day, part of my automotive bucket list if I ever had lottery money, is a Cussler musuem collection vehicle. Right after a MB 540K and a Duesenberg SC cabriolet.
As a child growing up, I was a rabid James Bond fan, and had started scuba diving at 12, and become a member of the Cousteau Society the same year.
A local book store employee…”

Daniel commented on 1929 Isotta Fraschini 8A SS Roadster Cabriolet by Castagna

“Still my favorite of the Cobra-R models. I know the 2000 seems to be everyone’s top pick, but I like the trimmer lines of the first generation SN95 and the ease of the 351W. I guess this one has such low miles it would be a shame to drive it much, but I would drive it regardless.”

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

“On September 4th, 1979, my father handed me the keys to a slightly used Buccaneer Red-on-White 1974 Pontiac LeMans Sport and said, almost offhand, “Your mother just bought a new Corvette. I need you to help me pick it up—and the LeMans will be your car now. You owe her $2,000, pay it off over the next two years. Here’s a new AAA card, insurance is covered. Oh, and you’re welcome.”
He seemed distracted—probably thinking about the price tag on that new black Corvette. The LeMans…”

“My late grandfather had a 92 Accord EX sedan that he took to 800,000 before he passed. Unfortunately it was in northern Illinois so by the time he died the car was only about 75% there from the beltline down due to rust. It was a stick and still had the original engine and transmission (I think it was only on t he second clutch) and still drove like a dream. If it wasn’t for the rust I would have kept it and drove it to a million plus. This one is tempting. These are really great cars…”

elecktronika commented on No Reserve: 965k-Mile 1992 Honda Accord EX Wagon

“This is a rare and unique Dart that in 1967 was a radical move. Dodge went into the year continuing the 273 Charger that was a respectable performance V8 with high compression, solid cam and flowed exhaust but it was way behind market as the Mustang got a 390, the Camaro a 396 and the Nova was busting a hot small block. The GT trim was still subdued and the midyear GTS designation was just the logo. For 68 and 69 the GTS trim set apart a separate model and the 340 became an arguably more…”

“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…”
