    You guys are killing me! I think the worst thing I did was to sell my 85 GT5-S. Roughly 12 yrs later, I missed buying it back within a week from the guy I sold it to.

    Did anyone hear Adam Corolla's discussion of Panteras on his new "CarCast?" Funny stuff.

    Basically, he said they were undervalued (really?), collectible, and mostly driven by d0uchebags who add wide fenders, wings, and deep dish wheels.

    From your above reference to his comment about them being undervalued, I take it you agree with him?

    Adam Carrolla, from what I know about him, he 'invests' in 350 GT's and 400GT's Lamborghini's....not that they aren't gorgeous cars, but I would have at least advised to acquire a downdraft Countach! :D

    +1 Don't ever get rid of those original wheels. The aftermarket ones just don't look right.

    Not at all, actually....just mentioning it.

    I think nice Panteras are rather expensive, and I LOVE huge fenders, wheels, and wings. I've been told my taste is questinable, though. ;)

    Who cares what he says or thinks. Look at the guy/his speech. IQ equal to his shoe size.

    Yep, we (Octane.ie) had a display of members cars there. Paddock based in Farmleigh, an ideal paddock venue, but too far away from the main circuit.
