Whenever it needs to be removed for required maintenance.

Sold my cab at 133k miles and it had never had the engine or trans out, it made it to 140k before the next owner finally had a reason to pull the engine. My coupe is at 37k miles and I don't think it has ever had the engine out either.

Agreed; I though $70k would be the floor for that.

Shocked that the reserve wasn't $70-72k.

I think that car had an accident in its history and bit too much milage to be collector grade at this time and it was clearly overshadowed by the two killer Turbos that will be sold in the next coupe of days.

On the bright side someone got a great deal on a good looking car.

No they aren't, just look at the next two cars about to be auctioned off.

I find that result a bit disappointing. I will now concede the overall economy is starting to have an effect on prices.
