Some countries had them as a requirement.

Do all '73 RS's come with round outside rearview mirrors?

Which RS just sold for $450k? That seems like an exceptional bargain, even for an RS with questions, as compared to rumors of recent sales.

One sold last week for upper 600k for a touring model.

any recent sales of lightweight versions ? hearing a good lightweight should be around 900k today ? that sound correct ?

Funny. Here's the kicker. Once 911's get out of reach (like collectible Ferraris) the "IT" car might become the Toyota Celica.

In defense of cars that I find much more interesting when you are going to pay up I give you the Toyota 2000GT. ($849,000 ask)

It is in my top 10 of all cars I'd love to own.

At least that, unless the car is terrible. Thin market though.

Let us not forget the 2000GT convertible in the 1967 James Bond movie "You Only Live Twice"
