Not really; you can use a GT3 as a DD, but you need a trailer to take the GT3 RS to the track, which is where it belongs.
A friend gets a new one every year. He drives his to the track all the time...

That Miura looks fantastic. I'd love a Dino too, but it is a whole different animal.

Correction to my previous post. Flat-four Subaru engine was 2.5L rated at 180 horsepower. Seems like a 5-speed would have been nice addition.

A 2.5 Turbo would make it even better.

I think this is more my speed but probably not worth what it will likely go for.

A few months back someone sold a Dino on BaT for around $260k, I think. Since then, about a half dozen have been auctioned on BaT, usually bringing between $200k and $300k.

For someone looking for a pretty rare Miata, 2003 Club Sport, 1/50. This is basically the best R package you could get. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2003-mazda-miata-club-sport-2/

It is fun when the car up for auction has a ski theme.

Did you see the results of the 1988 8K miles red BMW M3?

Mind blowing. $250K. I owned one, this color, back in the day.
They are a "fun"car, but not, IMO, a $250K car.
Just takes two to "play...."

I would put this near the top of the BWM HOF. Until you see the $310K Datsun 240Z.

Wow. All I can say.

^^^^^^
I meant BAT Hall of Fame, not BMW.
Big, big bucks!
But the Datsun?? Even more wow.

Amazing what’s out there to buy at, say $50K to $65K. Like a mint Ferrari f355, with a six speed. Don’t think you’d need to touch $75K.

I wonder if either of those purchases will actually be driven....

This is sure to rub some people the wrong way but would be lots of fun. It looks like there's even enough room to add a blower:cool:.

So it's a Corvorshe? A Porvette? A Chevrosche Nine Elevette?
