I believe people should spend their own money any way they want to-——but this,to me,is insanity.

It’s a damned car,for God’s sake. A car.

I had a professor who raced a Nash Healey in the early 50s.

Probably the first combination of American motor with British Sports car body. At least in a production car.

I have touched this car. Sadly they wouldn’t let me drive it.

Carroll Shelby’s legacy is impressive. Too bad he never won the Nobel or any award of merit.

The lesson to be learned here is that drunken auto engineers build the best cars.

If anyone ever has an opportunity to drive one of these you will never forget it it’s the most outrageous thing I’ve ever driven

You would think for that sum that the seller would have the seats re-upholstered prior to the sale.

I sure hope it wasn’t the Walmart family who bought it.
They already own GT40 1075 and I think the ‘66 LaMans winner.

Well, this makes my plan for spending $2.7MM for a 2017 Bugatti Chiron a bargain! Still rolling the pennies from the penny jar...I'm sure there are enough there!
