    My folks first house cost $11,750 in San Francisco in 1961.

    Adjusted for inflation, $14,000 in 1963 is equal to $115,700 in 2019. (~3.8% inflation)

    I love the "most reliable" bullet. Obviously this car was still a ton of money though.

    Hear you on the "if only."

    A dealership that sold Ferraris and Buicks? How novel! Of course, it started in California.

    Yet if invested in the Dow Jones index would only grow to about 3.45 million.


    Ferrari beats the DJIA !

    Spencer Buick was an official Ferrari dealer in San Francisco 1963.
    Do a search on fchat and you can find out much more.

    Info in that article is hopelessly outdated (also for 2018 standards) and not accurate in at least three cases.
