RM auction

Thanks for the post. The conversion to U.S. Dollars as of today (5-18-08) would be:

1967 206 GT $179,936

1972 246 GT $162,798

1973 246 GT $171,368

1973 246 GTS $205,653

 

no one has mentioned lot 103 - a red cover manual and a blue cover spare parts manual ......

that's it and that's all in the lot

selling price of €2.588 + 13% comission = $4533 (assuming $1.55 = €1)

 

No that IS startling

 

Is there anyway of knowing general condition of these cars?

 

Check out the photos from the catalogue on-line:

I think that everything at the Maranello auctions is pretty much primo. I like the price on that '73 GTS, though!

 

Anyone know where that GTS is headed to? I haven't been following Euro prices too much lately but always thought the coupes were more desirable than spyders in Europe? Are spyder prices now typically higher worldwide?

 

Not quite true, there was a pretty ratty 275GTS there last year. I wasn't at this year's show since I couldn't make it so can't comment as to condition. Nothing on the detailed auction reports on SCM yet, only the prices. I wouldn't assume condition 1 cars just on it being RM/Maranello.

 

206 GT = 3- (crashed in former times, you can see it easily nowadays)
246 GTS = 2- general good condition, wrong color (original giallo fly!!!), wrong (= not original) interior, Swiss VAT
246 GT lhd = 3 lots of little mistakes, no beauty, Swiss VAT
246 GT rhd = ??? seemed to be the best of all 4

 

i thought it was interesting how, other than the 206, no interior photo's were shown. maybe the explanation is that they weren't worth showing. the prices seem appropriate for the condition. if the car was a no. 1, we would expect to see much higher results - i think

 

Damn.

 

makes you feel good in a weird, perverse way, doesn't it?

 

you bene drikning?

 

just corrected that.

 

Almost, check it again.

 

holy cr*p, you need some more times on your hands (versus other things). i have corrected once again............but, only for you

 

I feel honored!!!
