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 »

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 »

De Tomaso, Road Cars

What is that??? That’s what we imagine you’d hear while driving this De Tomaso Guarà. This is one of 2 (of the 40 made) in the U.S., from what we understand, so you’d likely never ’see yourself coming around a corner’ in one. It’s unusual and while the Italian stying isn’t for everyone, we really like that it doesn’t look like anything else. It’s currently on EBay at $100,000 with 0 bids and Reserve Not Met. …Read More »

Road Cars, TVR

This ‘66 Griffith is the type of car we love finding. Owned by the same fellow since 1967, it was raced at places like Watkins Glen as well as driven on the street. Cars like this one have a history, the tell a story and that’s a great part of car collecting and ownership. This Griffith is currently on EBay with Reserve Not Met at $52,100 and 38 bids. …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 »

Porsche, Road Cars

In case anyone asks about your ‘new’ 579hp/600lbs-ft of torque Porsche, Ruf is pronounced more like ‘Roof’ than ‘Rough.’ Regardless, they’ve got a really loyal following for good reason. Given the dedicated fans, Ruf cars hold their value really well which is why, at 14 years old with over 60,000 miles, the seller is asking $79,900. …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 »
