Should be interesting to see the final price. Is anyone else heading down for the auctions? I'm leaving Thursday morning with the fam. Should be super fun...as always.

Just looked Capepa has an '87 for sale right now.

Road & Track did a piece on the 959 a few months ago. It's a truly amazing car.

The rest of the automotive world is just now catching up to what that car had in 1986

Just browsing this year. We go down every year for the auctions, mostly just to browse, but we picked up a car three years ago and will probably sell one next year.
