No affiliation, unfortunatelly (for me) it's for a LWB car.

one day to go and only 101 euros that is an excellent price if it holds there.

The seller has a few other items; bumpers, chrome grills and a 911/83 RS case but does not say engine #.

Looks like the cat got out of the bag. One hour left and bidding has meanwhile jumped from Euro$100 to Euro$437.

I don't get it. Baubles and Bling. Serves absolutely no purpose. Manny, Moe and Jack designed it.

710euros is a pretty healthy price

Yep Tom, a true sports car has nothing on it that doesn't make it go faster. Kinda like paint or enameled hood badges; just frivolous add-ons.

Is this hobby getting more expensive all the time?

A Car With All The Bells And Whistles Often Makes A Big Difference In Value And Desirability Unless You Are Racing..

In My Opinion Any Factory Options, Especially Rare Options Are What Will Make A Huge Difference In Value And Collectibility Between Two Otherwise Indentical Cars..

Special Paint, Sport Seats, Aluminum Deck Lid, Muffler Skirt , 7 Inch Wheels, Full Leather Interior, Electric Windows, Behr Air Cond, Sunroof, Plastic Gas Tank, Fender Trim, H1 Headlites, Ttg Driving Lights, Rs Steering Wheel Ect..


Most Of These Rare Options Will Not Make The Car Faster (probably Slower) Or Drive Better And My Cars Have Them All..
But My Cars Also Have Short Gears, Ls ,oil Coolers, Bilsteins And Other Factory Options That Do Make The Cars Faster..


In Reality Sport Seats Are A Major Negitive For Performance Because They Are Much Heavier Then Stock Seats But They Are Highly Collectible And Command Huge Money..

Rudge Knock-offs On My Speedster Or On A 300sl Gullwing Are Much Heavier Then Stock Wheels But They Add Over $10,000 To The Value Of The Car..

Rare Parts On Any Collector Car Will Almost Always Bring Big Money Especially As Time Marches On..

You Often Cant Pay To Much..just To Soon..

Just My $.02

I agree completely Ex, I was just being fecetious(sic)! Just these kinds of options do add a lot to the right car; R stripes, rear wiper, roof racks, fog lights... great stuff.

My own cars are more towards the "light makes right" end of the spectrum, but I very much regret trading or selling so many of the "bling" trim items that I thought so little of years ago (and even more recently ).

Oh well, I think this was a good buy. If someone has a set just collecting dust, let me know.
