The GTS is coming up soon- Lot 730.1 - just about 11 cars until it rolls across the stage.
The GTS is sandwiched in between a 1990 Rolls Silver Spur and a 97' 993 Convertible. The way the cars are rolling it could end up being the Haggerty Fantasy Bid Car.

Lots of people checking out the GTS just before commercial break.

And they didn't show it on center stage either. Instead they showed us some POS tank with a 455 two barrel carb in the parking lot.
Man I don't like BJ. At least it looks like the muscle car craze has slowed down, maybe we will get back to the times of the exotics going good.

GTS went for $35,200 it says. Wish I could have seen it.

Bastards!!!!
Do you think they could have given the 928 some love? I couldnt believe they didnt show the GTS. Instead they came back from commercial, and proceeded to inform us about VIN numbers, and who won the recent Fantasy bid all the while the GTS was on the block.
They should really stop -smell the roses- and look at the beautiful art work crossing the stage!!!!!!!
Just after the GTS was gone and they came back from a commercial again, they showed an 80's BMW and talked about it quite a bit. That is like interviewing Molly Ringwald over Christie Brinkley.
Just my two cents.

Is this a testament to supply and demand? If so, and there is only one GTS, wouldn't the producer show it just for the novelty effect? Who woulda thought there is $30K for a Nova "recreation"? After the 3rd Road Runner, I start surfing again. Definitely a bias. There is no accounting for taste. I will suffer on. 
OTH, I can't think of a better winter vacation, unless it is Hawaii.

Frankly, I'm impressed that a 1987 Porsche 928 S-4 with 66K miles would sell for over $17K
They have long been an under appreciated car
and maybe they are now getting a little respect

The "I bought it at Barret-Jackson" adds thousands to the price as does the chance to be on television.... 30 seconds of fame. Plus at $17,000 it is one of the cheapest cars there
