This car turns heads - literally. 

How many cars have you driven where pedestrians on sidewalks near the car shout out "I like your car!"  It has happened to me repeatedly and only in this car - most recently yesterday!

 

If you are the type to look for a truly great car at a great price, congratulations, you just found it. 

 

I am the fourth owner of this car and have thoroughly enjoyed driving it for the past 9 years.  I gave up my '98 Corvette Convertible to buy it.  My wife thought I was nuts at the time, but you know why I did it - it is a classic all the way.  Quiet, smooth and one of the best looking cars in history.

 

It is in excellent condition and doesn’t need anything.  Carfax and title are clean and the car has never been tampered with (no accidents with the last two owners and according to carfax, none with the first ones either).  I just turned 115k miles and it has A/C, PW, PS, PB, CC, original AM/FM/Cass (it was a $425 extra when new!), leather and 2 tops – hardtop and convertible.  Ceiling mounted hardtop removal rack is included.  Mechanically excellent - you don't even know the engine is running when you are stopped at a traffic light.  A/C is cold and has been updated to todays refrigerant.

 

As you can tell, I am not a dealer.  If you want to go to a dealer and pay their profit and have no history on the car, I am OK with that - good luck.  On the other hand, if you want to talk to the person who has maintained and driven the car for almost a decade, I am he.

 

The car was imported from Germany to San Francisco and sold by a dealer in San Rafael California. I bought it from a woman neighbor who moved East in the 90’s.  It has never seen a winter and has no rust (including undercarriage).  Best I can tell, it has always been garaged.  While I owned it, I did have it painted (original color) and it is gorgeous.  I have the original window sticker ($41,302), owner’s literature and multiple keys.  This car has been meticulously maintained for its entire life.  I can guarantee that this car is one of the nicest cars you will find of this vintage and the absolute best color combo. 

 

Give me a call if you are interested – and serious - and I will be happy to tell you anything you want to know - 610 517 6069.  You are welcome to come and see and drive the car.  If you see it, you will buy it.  For those that don't do this, you may get a shot at it with the auction, but I will end the auction early if I get a reasonable offer. I put a very reasonable reserve on it - unfortunately I must sell it and priced it to sell in the first listing. I know there are some crazy prices out there - this is not one.  Don't miss this car - I almost did when I bought it 9 years ago and really glad I got it.

Mercedes sues Ferrari-bound F1 engineer for stealing secrets

Tue, Dec 8 2015

Mercedes is suing one of its Formula One engineers, one Benjamin Hoyle, claiming he was planning to take sensitive data to a competitor. An experienced powertrain engineer, Hoyle came to Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains in 2012 with previous experience at Prodrive and Cosworth. One of four team leaders at the company, Hoyle headed up the performance application department until he notified his employers of his intention not to seek renewal of his contract that expires at the end of this year. Once they found out that Hoyle was switching to Ferrari, the higher-ups at Mercedes reassigned him to other, less sensitive duties, however Hoyle was reportedly discovered accessing race reports and other sensitive data relating to the performance of the team's engines. In response, Mercedes has filed suit against Hoyle, claiming that he "and potentially Ferrari have gained an unlawful advantage." The German automaker is seeking the return of all documents and the payment of its legal fees. It also seeks to prevent Hoyle from working for another F1 team throughout next season. Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains is the Daimler's F1 engine division. Based in Brixworth, UK, it was founded back in 1983 together with Ilmor before Mercedes bought it outright. Aside from the company's own works team, the outfit this year powered Williams, Lotus, and Force India, and previously worked with McLaren as well as Sauber. This is not the first time that a case of industrial espionage has emerged in F1. A similar controversy erupted in 2007 surrounding engineers Nigel Stepney and Mike Coughlan. The highly publicized incident became known as "Spygate" or "Stepneygate" and involved the illegal sharing of secrets between Ferrari, McLaren, and Renault.

Veneno Roadster, One:1, One-77, LaFerrari, P1, Veyron headline 25-car Bonham's auction

Mon, Jun 24 2019

Bonhams is holding a no-reserve auction in fall 2019 that includes some of the most valuable and sought-after supercars of the past decade. The lot of 25 beautiful collector items includes a Lamborghini Veneno Roadster, a Koenigsegg One:1, an Aston Martin One-77, a Ferrari LaFerrari, a McLaren P1, and a Bugatti Veyron. The collection, which was seized from a corrupt politician from Equatorial Guinea, is valued at roughly $13 million. If selling off future classics that are still in their infancy as collector items seems strange, it's because this is not a straightforward situation. These cars will be sold off by the State of Geneva, not a person. The collection was previously owned by the vice president of Equatorial Guinea, Teodoro Obiang, but the cars were seized when he was placed under investigation for money laundering and unfair management of public interests. These 25 cars, which were located in Geneva, were first sequestered in fall 2016. A trial court ordered them sold off, and the money earned from the sales would be invested in social programs that benefit Equatorial Guinea. And so, Equatorial Guinea is about to see an influx of cash, as every vehicle is valued in the hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of dollars. The rarest might be the Koenigsegg One:1. One of only six remaining, it has 371 miles on the dial, and is valued at roughly $1.8 million. The Lamborghini Veneno Roadster, one of nine in the world, is a close second. It has 202 miles logged, and is valued at about $5.1 million. The Aston Martin One-77 is another rare bird. It is example No. 35 of 77, holds a 7.3-liter V12 engine, and is valued at about $1.4 million. A McLaren P1, Ferrari LaFerrari, and Bugatti Veyron 16.4 round out the top of the list. The remaining cars are not fully detailed, but they include examples from Mercedes-Maybach, Bentley, Maserati and Porsche. The auction will take place on Sunday, Sept. 29, at the Bonmont Golf & Country Club near Lake Geneva. For more photos and information, visit Bonhams.
