Current price looks good enough, so what about that other stuff?

If I am interpreting this correctly it was how I felt when I got my first Mercedes GL450, I was almost embarrassed when people would ask me what type of cars I had.

Don't worry you get used to owning it and it becomes just as natural as owning your BMW's.

No, no, no. Worth every penny...

This is very exciting! Fingers crossed for you, Josh.

The more I look at it, the more I like the spec (other than the whole cab 4 bit). I think color, interior, wheels all are very good.

And at 50% of msrp? My 22k mile/6 year old boxster is worth 50% of its options-inflated msrp. The discount is there due to the season, the carfax, that it's been through a couple of owners who all ate some depreciation and that the majority of manual drivers would want coupes.

Well, crap. Just took a big bump up.

But Josh is in it to win it...

Exciting!! Good luck!!

Crazy Auction, I like how when you bid the time goes back to 1 minute and 59 seconds ... if it keeps up like this the auction will still be on this evening

wdc330i · 11-18-2019, 03:14 PM

Damn!

Alan · 11-18-2019, 03:17 PM

I thought for sure Josh was going to bid again.
