Not a BMW, but a reflection of out of control prices

[conkitchen]

I pity the fool! 

 

I own a 924S, cause simple and not very special 2002's are over priced now.  

 

But wait, what are we talking about here?

But recently their prices have sky rocketed, and they have become quite a status symbol among the new young professionals who have recently acquired them here in Los Angeles.

I just don't understand how this all works since it's now generally accepted that a manual shift lever is the ultimate millennial anti-theft device.  So what do they DO with these cars that they spend so much money on?

Try steal your truck and ruin the clutch and leave it abandoned with other people's stolen stuff in it. Ask me how I know.

that 912 is really nice with incorrect rims (fuchs didn't come out until 67)

 

worth 72k tho? nah prob not but not too far off either

A little piece of worthless trivia ....Fuch wheels also came in 14s, they were for “comfort “. They are next to nothing in value. The 15s are going for $4000/set restored.
