Like your style! You have the right ones imo. and if memory serves correct, a UV RS. I'm missing the R. Nowhere close enough to VIP status to land that thing and nowhere close to paying market.

I tried to figure it out by looking at the photo but the old eyes are not what they used to be...my guess is not, but it would be nice to hear from someone who laid eyes on it.

Sorry for slow response...was hyper focused on the 4.0RS and didn't really look at the R or the GT2RS. HAve been working with Dominic and he's been great.

PTS? Delivery mile? Magical fairy dust option?

I'm just fortunate to have my 4.0 driver.

Sometimes I wish these things (LE/vintage cars) would cool off; not as fun to drive anymore when you feel like you are behind the wheel of a piece of art. Great problem to have, but making it less of a hobby and more of a stress like most other thing in life. There has to be a level where most of us drivers say "screw it", you can have my car and put it in your climate controlled museum! I'm not there yet but I'm guessing it gets there eventually. Or I gotta make more money to make the price tag seem inconsequential.

I realize a black delivery mile 7-4.0 is a completely different animal than a driver. But, wow.

Just left Amelia. What an amazing place. So beautiful. Black 4.0 did well, just like gt1 and 964 lightweight.
Most normal cars did not sell. Only the special ones did well.
Makes me happy so I can keep driving my 4.0l

couldn't agree more. I've got roughly 1k miles on my 2RS and, at current market levels, have trouble convincing myself to take her out. As you write, everyone (or almost everyone) has a price

Two previous owners and only 130 miles, this car will not see 200 by the looks of it.

Always a fine line,

I guess the owner of the delivery mile car at Gooding thought it was a good time to sell.
Still weird to sell a car like that. Long term it will never be worth less and I doubt the owner needs the cash. But, what do I know. I'll keep driving mine. I don't track it. Which is a shame, That's what they were built to do.
Just can't let it sit. To much fun driving these cars.
