    “I’d like to thank everyone who joined the conversation. There were many great comments, and I learned a lot about my car. This BaT process has been so cool for me to be a part of. It’s just been fun – maybe the only fun way to let go of this car. Here are a few last pics. Thank you all!!”

    “I worked on the development of these back at the start of my career as an engineer with Isuzu in Cerritos, CA. The prototype from Japan was purple and RHD which got lots of stares and thumbs up Super fun cars to drive. Drove it to Lake Tahoe through many fun roads. Handled pretty well for a SUV.”

    “Son of the late owner here. My dad found and imported this car (and a few others, including the recent Woodie Fiat Topolino on BaT). He had a collection of several dozen vintage European cars, including many Ferraris, Alfa’s, Lancia, Fiats, Porsches, etc. He was a perfectionist when it came to cars and became more interested in hot rods like this one as time went on because they were more fun to drive on the gorgeous NY back roads. The car would have received /anything/ recommended by Frank…”

    “Thanks for a good battle @camarojamie This car will remain as it sits with just a thorough mechanical restoration. This thing will be back on CA roads in a few months!”

    “I just want to say that this car has brought so many good moments to my husband and I through the years. So many shout outs……fun at car shows…..he drove it to our wedding….we rode home in it after. It’s been a part of most of our life celebrations in some way. He passed away this year and it feels time to let someone else make a memory with it. Whomever gets it, I hope you enjoy it as much as we have ❤️”

    “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.

    “It’s incredible to see the one-year only chromed exhaust extensions! They were unique to 1975 Formulas and 400-powered Trans Ams.
    For record, the chromed splitters, which were introduced on the 1974 GTO were included with the Trans Am’s “455 HO” package introduced in midyear 1975 and used throughout the remainder of the 1970s and into the 1980s.”

    “When I was 17 my best friend bought almost this same car – his was actually a ‘67 but they look the same to me. At the time it was an 8 year old used car, bought for $800
    What a great car that was! Some of my favorite memories are cruising with my best friend in the Cadillac listening to Led Zeppelin. A true Party Barge! He passed away last year, still my best friend. Thanks for the memories”

    “I had to give up my old track day 911 I bought many years ago at 19. I promised myself that one day I would find a way to fill that void. I guess today’s that day.
    Thanks everyone. We had a great time.”

    “I remember street racing one of these against my 93 Typhoon. My awd blew it off the line but after about 100 feet or so I was staring at his taillights the rest of the way. These cars are deceptively fast. Beautiful example that will be way out of my budget. GLWTA!”

    “Wow! I wish I was 30 years younger. This is a very solid looking start to what would be a great car! It looks like lots and lots of cleaning and derusting lies ahead! I did a ’62 years ago that started out a lot worse than this and ended up stunning. For the adventurous (and young) this could be an awesome project! GLWTA”

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

    “In 1964 this car appeared in my neighborhood in Ft. Lauderdale Florida. I was an impressionable fifteen-year-old and Dr. Lane was daily driving this 904 all over town. One day I chased him on my bicycle to inquire about the car. He generously let me sit in the car and told me about his racing plans. He traded in a Ferrari 250 (SWB) to obtain this Porsche. Dr. Lane was a renaissance man- brain surgeon, commadore at Lauderdale Yacht Club, pilot and owner of twin engine airplane, SCCA racer,…”

    “Oh hello, old friend! I managed Aston Martin Newport Beach for 6+ years, I spec’d this car personally, and I sold it to the original owner. Used to see him driving in Newport/Laguna all the time. I don’t work there anymore, so I don’t have access to the service records, but my memory was that the original owner did the scheduled maintenance on time, and the remainder of the service visits you see on the carfax are for tires. I seem to remember that he didn’t have the best luck with…”

    “What a fabulous example of the timeless Pagoda; interesting history and colors, well-documented and presented (all the spot welds you could ever ask for!), two tops, and three pedals….. Surely this must be in the top 10% of 280SLs recently offered here?!?”
