No disrespect, but I have to wonder where these prices are coming from. They just had the BJ auction here a couple weeks back and cars went for crazy money like they always do in auctions. These same cars on the street go for a fraction of the auction price. I have been involved with the classic and antique collectors market since the mid 1980s. I see local prices for many of the cars listed, that are in excellent shape, selling for less than half and more commonly half of what is listed in the article. New restored Spitfire $6.5K 1974 MGB fully restored $8K Boxters $8K to $12.5K all day long and Alfas' under $10K all day long with A/C. ... View more

Prices a bit exaggerated I'd say. At least what they go for around here. Not mentioned was the 1966 Corvette built for racing team/group? with the L-88 Engine. These cars are worth around $3M. There are less than five in existence. I have a video of one my friend's family owns. ... View more

I was part of the EV-1 Electric Vehicle Program at FPL in the mid to late 90s. I had one assigned to me and was also a spokesperson for the car and program. I attended many events including a couple of Boy Scout Campouts/Jamborees. I drove the car for a couple of years. It averaged about 90 miles. I would charge it at work during the day on a dedicated charging unit and with a special 110 charger at home overnight. I never got stuck and always had amble charge. You did need to know how to drive and apply regenerative braking. I took a lot of company execs for rides in the car. I remember one exec saying "Its like a golf cart, but I bet it is pretty slow" I sad actually it is pretty quick and fast. It does 0-60 in just over 5 seconds. He didn't believe me and asked me to demonstrate. We drove to a desolate stretch on Donald Ross Rd, where I told him to hang on as I punched the pedal to the floor. The front tires spun as I held the wheel with great strength. The car launched to 60mph in no time and I backed off. He said amazing and it does not shift. I said no just like a golf cart. A really fast golf cart. That was the President of my company. Amazing memories. ... View more
