That would be a nice one to cruise around town in!

I'll second that, Orv.

Sweet!! I still like the black one more, even though my current car has same color as this one. Maroon? I don't even know.

That's a nice foto and a nice color, Tom.

That is a gorgeous vehicle. I think though, that I like the black one, with those gold rims. I am a bit curious about the louvers, in the back quarter panels. I wonder if they have a function, or if they're just a design detail.

I've always be a sucker for black and gold but the maroon one looks dang good.

Thanks, Willard. Truth is, they're both beautiful. Hard choice for me.

You know, Phil, I was wondering the same thing. i waited around that black one for a little while hoping the owner would show. He never did. It looks like the maroon one belongs to the Petersen museum out in California. I'm going to try and find out about the louvers.I got down and looked into them. If I had to bet, I'd say they're functional....probably to help cool that really large trunk.

I hear you, Jo. Honestly, I had no idea it meant so much to you. How's your head? Has your vision returned? Incidentally, the last time one of these two cars ( the black one ) was sold....in 2016....it went for $1,400,000.
