One man's serious is another man's delusional

For $90K, one could buy the same car, same mileage, same condition, but with factory twin turbos, 120 more horses, and a bigger return on the investment in the long run

I disagree, you will never find a riviera blue twin turbo for $90k and if you find one let me know so I can write the check

Ah, yes. True. Notice I didn't say 'same color'.

If you have Smurf Stalker Sickness, then this would be it.

One of my neighbors just picked up a 370Z in Smurf color. Bet it already doubled in value.

This isn't a car, it's a Beanie Baby.

I got the Smurf sickness, I have it to a certain degree. Not $100k sickness but that's only because I would love to see a green or orange GT3RS in the stable for that coin.

Whoever buys wont ever have to worry about pulling up to a stop light issue.

I lost a car last year I regret losing and have been kicking myself ever since. I didn't want to pay too much and lost out to the guy that paid for it. I called emailed the buyer the next day, a Rennlist Member, and he said he would never sell it. I never thought I would have another shot at this car and for some reason have been lucky enough to get a second chance. Like this car there is only one or two in the United States, so this time I am going to make sure I get it. At the end of the day a rare car is worth whatever it is worth to the buyer to have it. I know I am not missing out on my second chance. With rare cars you may not get an opportunity to get the one you want again, and for me personally I would rather pay to have exactly what I want. I wasted way too much money settling for cars. The car I am buying I plan to keep forever, so I don't feel as bad over spending on the car. I hope the car goes to someone on here and even better would be someone local, so we could do a photo shoot! if anyone has any questions feel free to email me.

I know the car your getting and it's a once in a lifetime car indeed! Good for you.

I also think you made a smart decision putting it on EBay. Best way to gauge market value and will still probably end up with a RL.

For your rare Riv Blue 993 C2S, it's going to goto a person who has a passion for these cars, that color, but also the money to back it up. I'm sure a lot of us would love to have it, but not the means. Either way, I hope someone on here gets it too. Great car, great color. If this is your dream car, it's worth every penny.
