I am not trying to offend anyone but IMO that's ALL the money on this one. Four new tires, full engine out service with belts etc etc etc, top, sticky fix etc etc.... That could be 15 grand before you bat an eye. Who knows what it would take to get the top working correctly again. \n\nDon't stay in a bad trade just because you don't like the market, sometimes its better to hit the bid and move on, redeploy your capital into a trade that makes you money.", "likes": 3, "timestamp": 1545082592, "type": "comment", "endDate": "2018-12-17 13:36:32+00"}, {"id": 2792182, "authorName": "OinFL", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/oinfl/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "Unfortunately, the economy is on the downslope.

This car is beautiful and worth owning but not worth risking $50k on with all the mileage discrepancies, accident history, delayed maintainance and the ever looming possibility of a 25k-plus valve/header job that almost all but the few 1999 355s are vulnurable to. 99's often exempt from due to their stainless steel valve guides. The repair bills are high when this is needed and it's not a rare problem. Not sure at this moment which actually cost more these days between the GTS and the berlinetta but both more than the spyder. The six speed a big plus on this one though. Still nice car.
