      Speaking of German cars...

        Looks really good. Decent price so far, cheap enough to possibly be exported back to Europe as they are worth a lot more there. For whatever reason, probably just based on the past, these cars have never attained big value in NA - Pontons and 108/109s always seem to do better.

          @fintail seems like a hell of a lot of car for 10k. I’m sure with 5 hours to go it’ll go up, but clearly what I don’t know about German car pricing would fill several libraries.

            @just-jeepin Just over 11K now, and a hell of a lot of car for the money. The market doesn't always value things correctly based on their actual quality. One would be hard pressed to find a period car with the aesthetics, build quality, and overall drivability for the money. But that's the story of fintails.

              @just-jeepin And it sold for 16K. Actually pretty healthy for a fintail (and exactly 10x what I paid for mine, but that was 25 years ago, and mine isn't that minty), but still a nice car for the money. Maybe still enough meat on the bone for export, too - probably a 20-25K car in Germany.
