Not weird at all. That design has aged very well, IMO. Still sharp after all these years.

Now this is cool.

Have some good memories ripping around one as a passenger in the French countryside

Went for $14k with the auto and 74k miles.

For comparison my 99 fern\dove 5spd with 77k miles at the time went for $17.5 in 08.

I see the value in these slowly rising. Even with an auto box.

This is cute. But, whoa, the price--and the auction isn't even over:

Without the wheel well appendages, this is very much like my old 2002 looked like (in my mind . . . for real mine wasn't nearly in this nice shape)

The buyer of my red 2011 cayman just sold his 914-6.

For $45000... The end is near

I never should have sold my 2002.

I don't plan on making the same mistake with the E9....

That's just nuts. I'd have my perfect 2013 low mileage E92 M3 for that much and not even blink at the choice.

I like how on BAT today there is an E30 M3 auction right next to a 190E 2.3 - 16. About 15k more miles on the M3 but I bet it goes for x3 the price.
