Can you all see these? I'm on a work filter.

That RS4 green is hideous.

 

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. The rest of the car looks clean

 

Wow, how ttribe walked out without committing GTA is impressive.






Albeit, I don't really see many drool puddles everywhere. Were you wearing a bib?

Thanks for sharring, Herr T.

 

It was difficult to remain in public...let's just put it that way.

 

So, you go with a friend or took your boys?



I would love to go to this "spectacle" one day. I hear the drinking is a bit...uncontrolled at times. Most bidders are sh*t-faced?

 

Went with a friend. I can imagine the drinking getting out of hand on the weekend. We were there on a Thursday night and I was seeing plenty of alcohol flowing amongst the bidders.

 

Your friend bid on anything?

 

No. We were merely spectators.

 

I see. Well, next time, I want more close-ups of that Pagani and Aston Martin and Koenigsegg and McLaren and Ferrari and Porsche and Ford! Please?

 

Since Tim posted some auction pictures, I will too These are from Mecum in Kissimmee last week.

 

I knew Fux was selling off a few of his Mercedes (as a whole collection) & many Ferraris, but I believe those are his IROC Z cars as well. Most of that should sell thankfully, because the man has created some oddball finishes.... That 599 is probably one of them; yellow on yellow interior.

 

Here are the top 10 most expensive cars sold in Arizona, along with the auction companies.

1. 1965 Ferrari 275 GTB Speciale Coupe sold for $8,085,000 (Gooding & Co.)
2. 1958 Porsche 550A Spyder sold for $5,170,000 (Bonhams)
3. 1954 Ferrari 500 Mondial Spider sold for $4,455,000 (Gooding & Co.)
4. 1931 Bugatti Type 55 Roadster sold for $4,070,000 (Gooding & Co.)
5. 1966 Shelby Cobra 427 S/C Roadster sold for $2,947,500 (RM Sotheby's)
6. 1972 Ferrari 365 GTS/4 Daytona Spider sold for $2,640,000 (Bonhams)
7. 1967 Ferrari 330 GTS Spider sold for $2,530,000 (Gooding & Co.)
8. 2017 Ford GT Coupe sold for $2,500,000 (Barrett-Jackson for charity)
9. 2014 Pagani Huayra Coupe sold for $2,090,000 (Gooding & Co.)
10. 1948 Tucker 48 Sedan sold for $1,792,500 (RM Sotheby's)

 

Yeah the Black Series lot didn't sell Bidding hit $850k believe.

The yellow on yellow 599 was horrible. I actually liked the white on white 599 though

 

Top end for a SLS BS is around $500,000. The SL65 BS is probably $250,000 for a pristine example. CLK63 BS is $150,000 top end. Basically no C63 BS for sale, but past cars have sold as high as $130,000; I'd be generous to wage $150,000 for mint. Given he was expecting a million dollars, I'm guessing $850K wasn't hitting the reserve.

Personally, should've accepted that offer. You'll be hard pressed to get someone to buy all 4 cars b/c there's a high chance someone interested in this collection already has 1 of the 4. There's very, very few of the CLK/C63 cars for sale as well, so my guess he won't have much issue offloading them individually.

 

That 458 Speciale Aperta would be perfect stripeless.

Talking about alcohol, an acquaintance of mine bid and won on a PTS Green color with green vent slants after a few bottles of wine; we must have made fun of him for a few years.

 

One more!

 

 

Sport Turismo!

 

That area is insane. Exotics all the time. I shot that outside the Rolex store which I was in only because we have a friend who works there. Free champagne!

 

Wish I could buy one of the cars here someday. Pics look great!

 

From CIAS 2018:

 

The one thing that stood at to me when I saw the Swed Egg in person at the NYC show, was how wide the tires are. They are enormous

 

Mono & Agera.
The Martini livery GT looks great too.

 

 

I visited Lamborghini of Austin today and snapped a few shots. Thanks the Ryan Mortensen (sales guy) for letting me roam around, take pictures and sit in some cars!

 

Uggghhhhh

 

 

wtf

 

I'm strangely not surprised given what else is on there....

 

 

....and, the owner just bought that car too-ouch.

 

Just out of curiosity, can anyone translate the badge

 

Wuling Hong Guang?
Apparently some minivan thing created by a GM/China auto manufacturer venture...

 

 

 

Dwight Howard drove by work yesterday

 

^How'd you know it was him?

A few I've seen in the wild including a 718. Sorry about the quality. The stupid app shrunk it. That's an S63 at the bottom left.

 

He plays for the Charlotte Hornets and has taken the same vehicle to another Charlotte-area MB dealership for service earlier in the year.

 

Yup. I do.

 

That douche plate. Ask him his maintenance cost
