Yeah - probably 100-110k. Some significant portion of those in attendance wouldn't know a 993 from a 914. That said, they could tell you each and every difference between say an AMC Gremlin and an AMC Pacer.

it has completed the 30k mile service so miles must be high for an s. nice colour cobalt.
my guess 90k.
I was going to go down for the auction and combine a family vacation but weather is too cold in phoenix in January to swim.
I pvr the auction then I can watch it much quicker, takes too long between cars, or waiting for a bid, or a car I am not interested in, just want to see the selling price.

I think is the same car that was at Ruf a while ago. It was also on ebay before that.

I'm here in Scottsdale for the auction (the weather is stellar btw...especially since it's frigid at home in NJ) and I plan to take a close look at that TTS tomorrow.

Very interested to see what happens on it and I may very well get into the action if the numbers look viable.

Lot of nice machines out here at Gooding, RM & Russo with some decent picks at Barrett as well.

I am no longer interested in watching the BJ (no pun intended) marathon after last night's coverage. Its kind of like a before American Chopper was scripted scenario. They used to have real cars and real people. Now they are now playing it up for the TV audience rather than the real car enthusiast. Way too many "tribute cars" and "celebrity owned" cars. It is no longer a "Collector Car Auction" but has become a TV drama. Back to watching the other HD Discovery channels......

Its been like that for years...I wish Craig Jackson would go away into oblivion and take his goofy Manager that always the dark shades inside with him. I would rather watch Billy Mays that BJ!

$95,000. Wonder what Willhoit and RPM will think about that.

More than the 512 TR though!
