The mirrors and the seats alone were worth $10k+

agreed. I’m surprised it sold there. I think the random damage underneath the car made some potential buyers question the extent and severity of track use.

Agreed! I paid ~$195k a couple months ago for a very similar example sans carbon and full leather and extra wheels but no track time. A wash in my view. I was very surprised to see that go for that price.

No cars are immune to the correction right now unless you have some 1 of 1 unicorn and can set your own market.

Timing the market is an impossible task when only 1 or 2 cars a quarter fit the criteria, it's all about who is in the room for that car on that day. Ignore what you spent and think of how lucky it is to start the clock on owning one of the top drivers ever created. Then thank the dude that sold it to you... I'm pretty sure I will know who will have the bigger smile when this is all over.

The reason this form exists is to remind us that this is not a damn watch. The for sale thread, although entertaining... can be distracting from why we bought it in the first place.
