    It's not challenge priced, but someone needs to buy this.

    Way too much cool, and out of my price.

    Very cool. Kind of reminds me of an old 50's Jag that I saw at an auction years ago. Alas, I didn't buy it.

    That is one of the coolest things I've seen in quite some time. I want that thing badly. I also want to punch the berkeleyer that vandalized it in the mouth. You just don't to that to a car, especially one that cool.

    You took the words out of my mouth. It looks like a German Jag. If it has an inline 6, that would be an even more apt comparison.

    Restomod with a newer engine (say from a 540i) would be killer. It's a sedan, kind of rare, but likely nowhere near ad valuable or desirable as a coupe or cabrio.

    Why do I want the Baja Bug in the back ground?
