They don't even have a good angle in my \"raised in the 60's sports car experience\" opinion, and they are clearly a mob rule valued car. I repost the ridiculous prices these achieve and trust me, I do this a lot as they are nearly as common as dirt, especially on BAT. I very clearly recall my clapped out '64 MGB giving a flawless yellow speedster a very good race (in the mountains of NW Montana in around 1974), and I do mean clapped out, it was a running driver and that's paying it a compliment. So they are not particularly attractive, they are not sparking performers and they are definitely not rare. Yet they get....trying for a sophisticated yet decisive term but I can't get past....stupid money. Every time I see one of these get $100K+ I can't help but think of the decent sized garage I could fill with Euro sportscars that perform as well if not better that would also be so much better value for money. I have tried countless times to imagine the entertainment value the new owner of a...say...$160,000 Porsche 356 is going to get for their money. Then I think of my garage full of supposed lesser cars and nearly laugh out loud.", "likes": 5, "timestamp": 1532590134, "type": "comment", "endDate": "2018-07-26 00:28:54+00"}, {"id": 2389598, "authorName": "Tony-K", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/tony-k/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "Perfectly stated, @Rodewaryer.", "likes": 1, "timestamp": 1532611886, "type": "comment", "endDate": "2018-07-26 06:31:26+00"}, {"id": 2390042, "authorName": "weissach", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/weissach/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "Jose Romero at Driver Source is not known for his bargain pricing, which is fine.
