One of our Cleveland Cars and Coffee guys bought one and I’m pretty certain his was about $50k. Its just a little rough. It needs new carpet, mats and leather conditioner and a few other items like a driver door handle that will hardly work. It was higher mileage IIRCC somewhere in the 80k mile range..

Some have gone on auction sites for as low as $45k in past year. They are getting very cheap.

This is true. We’ve all been spoiled. People now come into my work and complain about fit, finish and noises etc on trucks but then take the thing off road and beat on it then expected everything to be aligned and no new noises to appear. Cars are cars , trucks treated as cars are another thing and trucks treated as…

When we were getting my wife a new Edge I wanted to get a Flex. My idea was to get a similar color Mini and do both roofs and mirrors with the British Flag graphics. She thought I was nuts but it sounded good to my car cult friends and I.

I’m excited, I’m in shock , I’m happy and I haven’t hardly slept all week because of staying up to watch the games either at home or in a bar.

My question is who was the driver. I want to know the test driver name on each of these cars so if he drives 2-3 different models we know time variations are not difference in driver skills. Ambient temperature might be nice too.

Tragic

Hopefully Brad Kettler has recovered from his car accident fully. He has the heart to bring together any Audi team he has been a part of. Met him once at an event and was around him a few hours. A remarkable guy who the Germans seem to respect despite being a Yank. I’ve always considered him as having as vital a role…

Excellent reasoning... you must be firing on all cylinders today!

Well done Jason. Had seen most of that material before but you put it together in a nice manner. The plus was I’d never seen the MB 2 door version pictures before, very cool!

Nice!

Omg, I love those cars. Have been able to be in a white one that was from New England and was around when Mark from EFI Express was putting a finishing touch on a high hp tune. I got to help because I was the only person with a 22mm wrench in their car. He tweeked it while we were on the showfield at Carlisle. I…

Grab any issue of Road & Track from the 70s or 80s and almost every cornering car looks like that.

Which is how I’ve hung all my garage cabinets.

I own a 3 yr old Invicta 8926 pro diver auto with the Seiko NH35A movement. Easy to confirm with the exhibition back. Love it, no issues.

sorry, a mistake made in the haste of typing that at work between my service department customers

Strange you should mention ships. Isn’t it about the same amount of pollution as 50 million cars for one ship. The statistic that the 15 largest in the world produce more pollution than all the cars is frightening. I think just in the past year they started some fuel changes to alter sulfur emissions but its just a…

Less safe? It’s 30 more horsepower in an quattro , slight suspension improvements for it to corner and grip the road even better, plus 3 more mpgs. I’m 61 and haven’t had a ticket or even been involved in an accident in over 30 yrs. Been driving since I was 15 and never been ticketed for an accident. I’ve attended…

OMG, my thoughts exactly. Those real old non-sports cars would never be anything I’d buy even if I had the cash. Maybe an old MG or Bugatti race car but not some old sedan. I can appreciate these guys loving them and the craftmanship but thats it. I even have a hood ornament picture collection, but I’d still never buy…

I’m amazed something like this hasn’t happened in my neighborhood. We have a landscaper with a trailer about half that size, his trucks and a snow plow. I’m surprised nobody has tried to run him off and he is one of the nicest guys in the area. The old busybody down the street with a yard as perfect as mine used to…
