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 »

Kudzu, Race Cars

February 7, 2010: This Kudzu has been relisted here on EBay starting at $155,000 with no reserve. We thought it was priced on the high side previously and the seller must have agreed. Still love the original paint from when it ran professionally.
January 6, 2010: Obviously we’re big sports car fans and like many others, we enjoying seeing just about anything from the IMSA GTP days. This 1990 Kudzu-Buick IMSA GTP Lights contendor has been advertised on and off for some time and we’ve always found it interesting. It recently popped back up and EBay so we’re wondering if the seller is willing to accept less than his (already reduced) asking price of $189,995. Bidding starts at $75,000 with Reserve Not Met. …Read More »

Ferrari, Road Cars

If you’re looking for a versatile open-top 12 cylinder Ferrari, the 575 Superamerica is really your best option. While not as nice looking as the 550 Barchetta or as technologically advanced as the new California its a solid option. This car in particular, with just 2,700 miles (and a sticker price of $315,000) is priced below market, we believe, at $179,888. …Read More »

Ford, Race Cars, Road Cars

January 24, 2009: We’re back from a great weekend in Scottsdale where we enjoyed watching the action at Barrett Jackson, RM Auctions and Gooding & Co. We were very disappointed at RM when they announced the GT90 had been pulled from the event. We were looking forward to seeing the car and watching the bidding. If we find out any more info, we’ll post it here.
December 22, 2009: On Friday, January 22, 2010 RM Auctions will auction off a truly unique Ford. The 1995 Ford GT90 was unveiled in January 1995 at the Detroit Auto Show as a successor to the legendary GT40 which Ford, with help from guys like Carroll Shelby, employed to beat Ferrari at Le Mans throughout the second half of the 1960’s. The auction house claims $3million dollars was spent in developing the carbon fiber panel, honeycomb aluminum chassis, 720hp quad-turbo V12 supercar. While RM Auctions is not currently providing any estimates, we doubt it will be bid up nearly that high. In the meantime, do any readers have estimates of their own? …Read More »

Dodge, Road Cars

January 24, 2010: This Viper ACR has been relisted by the same seller, with a lower asking price of $79,000. Looks like he’s ready to let this car go to a good home, for a very reasonable price here’s the new link.
January 20, 2010: If you’re looking for a weekend warrior you can drive to the track, abuse all day and drive home this Viper ACR may be for you. For the full specs on the 600hp ACR, check out this Motor Trend test drive. These cars sticker for around $100,000, with only 4700 miles the seller is asking $80,000 for this one (lowest price we’ve seen) and we think he’d make an even better deal for you to take it home. …Read More »

Porsche, Race Cars

Kremer Racing built some of the fastest Porsche 935’s in existence, as proven by their win at the 1979 running of Le Mans. This car isn’t one of them, it’s a replica, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t cool. With Real K3’s asking $850,000, this car seem like quite the deal, at only $85,000. …Read More »

Chrysler, Race Cars

Oreca has been largely successful at campaigning various race cars in both Europe and the U.S.. During the late 90’s and early 00’s Oreca worked very closely with Chrysler to build factory backed Viper GTS-R’s like this one, serial number 38. This car has a long list of history including multiple wins and many podiums. It’s recently been rebuilt, the owner is asking $199,000. …Read More »

AC, Race Cars, Road Cars

This 1957 AC Aceca is a find that’s met us with mixed emotions. It was for sale (from what we recall, 6-7 years ago) for $44,000 here, but we missed it then! We’ve often looked for this exact car to come back on the market and now it has, but the values of Aceca’s have climbed, now the seller is asking $119,000. We think it’s fairly priced, just a bit hard for us to pull the trigger right now. …Read More »

Race Cars, Radical

If you follow the blog, you know we’re big fans of Radical Sportscars. We’ve featured a very reasonably priced naturally aspirated Yellow one that sold quickly, and a supercharged Blue one that didn’t. This 2004 Orange/Blue SR3 was just listed for sale, its got a Downs Engineering 1350cc Hyabusa engine with a turbocharger, good for up to 400hp. The seller claim’s he’s got over $145,000 invested, he’s asking $49,000. …Read More »
