Real clean black/black cloth '93 Cobra went for $14k. Looked like a pretty-low mile car, but didn't catch the miles.

[cool cat]

That was pretty damn cool, so many cars to see.


If anyone goes today post up results from the notable cars, especially the L88, which has a very cool story.

[Karson]

I committed a BUI... bidding under the influence. Came home with a twin turbo 300zx. I went for a Corvette. Oh well. There was some nice stuff but also a fair amount of junk compared to the last couple years. People were paying big money for stuff. The black cobra was a repaint but a good repaint and very clean overall. I didnt catch the miles though.

[cool cat]

Was the 96 Grand Sport vette still available as a bid goes on auction?

[Karson]

Was the 96 Grand Sport vette still available as a bid goes on auction?

Yeah, bid up to 24k. I owned #171 so I looked this one over pretty good thinking I had a shot. Sharp car. Not sure what they wanted but I found classified ads for it wanting $29k before mecum. Thats sub 10k mile territory for one right now.

[MattB]

I was out there again yesterday. I think the black 93 Cobra had 86k on it.

[mardyn]

Big money flowing down there yesterday... the 12C McLaren I was interested in went for full retail + fees.

We had a great time and there were a bunch of peeps down there. There were a few bargains to be had, but by the time I figured it out, they were sold and on to the next sale.
