The Best AW11?
Discussion
I'd love to get my hands on that car (like Steve's above, mine had a terminal case of rust ) - unfortunately just don't have the spare cash.
Currently at £6250, reckon it will double that easily.
Oh well, there's always the lottery on Wednesday night

The only problem with a car like that is do you drive it like they were designed to or do you keep it in a temperature controlled environment and whenever it comes out it gets trailered to show it off?
Obviously a bit of spirited
Although if anyone else bought it, could they keep it pristine and with no more miles 'til I've got some spare reddies?!?
I think it should only be allowed to be sold to an enthusiast, i.e. not the Lawers wife as she had one in 1985 and it'll make her day to have this one as a runabout.
It could easily be owned by someone that drivers it and cares for it, i.e. use it all summer, trackday it, take it to show's but put it to bed in a nice dry garage eacy night, hose the underside off after every couple of runs, new oil every couple of thousand miles it wouldn't be hard to keep a mint car as good as new.

That needs to be in a museum
must just be me that hates that idea. They were made to be driven, so drive it i say.
amazing to see such an immaculate example, very rare you see old jap cars that have been kept like that, but no way in hell i'd pay for it lol. nice cars, great fun, but i think i'd take a rotten one for a grand and give it some abuse rather than paying 7 grand or whatever and being terrified of ruining its immaculate looks etc.

I'd drive the wheels off it
You and me both then
I have two of them that I drive the nuts off of regularly... Would be nice to thrash a brand new one around a track though - just to see how knackered (or "improoved" mine actually are
