I love how this article softly ridicules how a beautiful '50s convertible owned by Keith Richards went for cheaper than this pile of junk... ...and I'm an expert on piles of junk!

RyM3rC Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 I had a friend of a friend back in UA that brought in a grey-market fairly late-model Mini from Canada. I remember very little about it other than it was dark grey and even being nearly new was a piece of shit. Why someone would pay that much for an old-ass economy car is beyond me. That being said, I'll LOL when people pay $50k for a "survivor" civic si in another 60 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep hearing the term "Restoration" used when referring to Fox Mustangs... Makes me cringe, though I realize it was only a matter of time.

Diamonds Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 I'd like to think that someone bought it knowing that there was a ouch of stolen diamonds hidden within the seat cushion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avenger1647545502 Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Been to England? The Mini there is as the Corvette is here...now think what the results of the EIGHTH Corvette ever made coming up for auction would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Bastard Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 i find it hard to say that the car is "original" when the door is a different color Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
