BMW, Road Cars

Here’s a solid and cool daily driver, in proper old school fashion. The BMW M6 was the creme de la creme of two door sport coupes in the late 80’s. They’ve aged quite well, almost anyone will tell you it’s still a fine looking automobile. This one is in Southern California where they’re asking $24,990. …Read More »

Road Cars, Triumph

This Triumph TR-6 is a bit of an odd mixture, it’s a British chassis fitted with a Japanese Spec R33 turbo motor/trans. So, you’ve got British open-top styling which we like, coupled with Japanese reliability (in theory)… could be a pretty cool driver. This Triumph is on EBay at $15,000 with 17 bids and Reserve Not Met. …Read More »

Hot Rod, Road Cars

The days of summer are calling and nothing is more suitable [in our dreams] than a hot rod with open pipes and an open top. We like ‘old school,’ we appreciate anything that once ran flat out on the salt flats and we love unique touches that pop out at you the more you look at an automobile. This former salt racer has all of the above and it’s on EBay for $20,000 with Reserve Not Met. …Read More »

Porsche, Race Cars

Racing driver Walter Brun formed Brun Motorsport in 1983; they went on to campaign numerous Porsche 956’s and 962’s with a large amount of success, including a World Sportscar Championship in 1986. In the later days of Brun Motorsport the company constructed 8 chassis and built their own 962’s, this car is the last one built, serial number 962-008. Prices of anything Porsche 962 are really on a climb these days, the seller is asking $350,000 but told us $330,000 would move it. …Read More »

With the Bonneville Salt Flat season approaching, we figure there’s no better time to start working on your land speed attempt. We’ve always had a bit of an affinity towards going fast, which is the sole focus of Bonneville. Believe it or not, this car set a record in 2001 at 175.041mph. The owner claims the price tag is very reasonable, bidding on EBay is currently up to $1,136 with Reserve Not Met. …Read More »

Never contemplated buying a Packard, huh? Neither did we, until we realized this 1952 Packard Mayfair could be a great way to run La Carrera Panamericana on the cheap. It’s been run there before, in 1999 and with a bit of work, it looks like it would be ready to head back. Currently on EBay at $7,600, the seller tells us he’s ready to sell it to the highest bidder. …Read More »

Porsche, Road Cars

While Supercar Experience Palm Beach was great, we’re back to real life and that means something a bit more affordable. Porsche 914’s are nimble little cars and truly one of the best all-around entry level classics you can buy. This one has $13,000 in recent receipts but is currently listed on EBay in Hartford, CT for $4,000 with No Reserve! …Read More »

BMW, Road Cars

Yes, it’s ‘bimmer’ and not ‘beemer’ or ‘beamer.’ We don’t know why, all we know is that this 2002tii is really sweet looking. Plus, this is really the car that change the perception of BMW’s after WWII; it really formed a foundation for the car company we know today. A lot of history and a fantastic color combo for $29,500. …Read More »

Mazda, Road Cars

The Mazda RX7 was Motor Trend’s sports car of the year in 1993 with almost 300 hp, neutral balance, light weight Japanese technology. This is a prime example, as a one owner Arizona car with only 17K miles. Often with low mileage examples sellers ask over-market prices but this one is pretty reasonable at $22,900. …Read More »
