Vincent is culprit of rules change, Jaws1 of the bid/win list change. Need ruling on how many weeks they drive a Yugo for punishment.

 

If you know it’s a mulligan it shouldn’t count. I thought those were for people that made an honest mistake. Just saying.

 

I totally forgot to bid on that recent GT3. Rather than use my mulligan, I accepted that I missed the deadline and waited for the next round to begin. And still winless.

 

If anyone is keeping track, I still have my Mulligan

Don't worry, he is referring to me. I missed it by an hour or two. My screen still showed "2 days" until I scrolled down and saw that I mistakenly got the time wrong.

Now I REALLY hope I win !! .

 

Lol, when I went back to re-create the “rules” and how “Fequent” was modified numerous times it took 1-2 hrs. I recommend a very large pour of scotch, vodka, or bourbon before you start.

 

The market is crazy. High prices yesterday are lowballs today.

 

All,
Thought it might be fun to do a side bet guess on the price I pay for the 2006 997 C4 Cabriolet I am planning to buy after I get PPI done today?
-2006 997 C4 Cabriolet - Silver/black. 85K miles and Manual transmission.
-Car born in Chicago until 30K miles and has lived in California
-All services done at Porsche dealership. Only small number of service records in file - 29 Porsche Dealer services on Carfax and all oil/filter services on Carfax at proper intervals including most recent in March '21.
- In great condition excellent paint and interior. Only interior flaw is small rear passengers seat bottom has indentations from baby car seat.
-Had minor 3" paint scuff on rear fender lip from bicycle tire rub(sellers son) in garage. Went thru insurance to have it repaired so shows on Carfax.
-Full leather/heated seats/high end Bose system/crests in seat headrests
Seller asking $36K

Surprised you opted for a cab. Assume that has to do with available inventory. Looks like a nice car. Good luck with the purchase.

 

With current BaT and house craziness if seller asking 36 I expect you’ll end up paying 42.5

 

Just for the sake of comparison with today's auction today, here is a 2009 Targa 4S Chrono PASM for sale in Canada, asking $68,500:
miles = 60,000
US equivalent price = $56,000
