    Probably enough miles, mod improvements and repairs on my own TR that the car is fully sorted out so the next owner can enjoy it for many years, problem-free.

    That $500,000 car is going to need all new rubber, bushing, brake lines, Helms fuse box upgrade, etc.

    Personally, a 30,000-40,000 miles car, properly sorted out, would be a much better buy, unless you want bragging rights and/or a garage queen, IMHO.

    we are in a speculation era. Talking about what repair the car rightly needs is irrelevant. That car is not meant to be driven anymore. In fact it is likely to not run or breakdown after 20 miles.

    Car with delivery mileage are lawn ornament. Some people buy them not to drive them but to store them away for years only to them sell them at the right time for maximum profits.

    This car is a museum piece never to see asphalt again. Dont look at it as being a car any longer. For people buying car with no miles, 500K is nothing. They spend millions on painting or horses. It is not a car for the enthusiast/driver market.

    Can you imagine the heartbreak when the next guy goes 2.1 miles?

    "Pheobe....Ive soiled my ascot from a spell of sadness. I just hit 100 miles going from the car barn to the stables....the Testarossa is now worthless."
