Reply to "359 on SAMBA $10.5k NY"

Guess I like the 917 and 959 just because they are legends.  As replicas they are rare and interesting.  You won't see another on road or at car shows.  Being ugly ducklings they seem reasonably priced. (I got burnt buying an MG-C (6 cylinder rare car) - so you think I'd learn - it was daily driver and very British (unreliable) and never appreciated over repair costs).  I didn't realize the red PORSCHE marked replica was really a Ferrari replica until I looked at classic rear Ferrari taillights.  The 914 904 replica is ok looking but kit car is evident - while on the Porshe-Ferrari isn't until you look at unaltered 914 interior (which isn't bad but not Ferrari).

If the 359 were within 400 miles of me - I'd buy it! As Branum-Bailey said - there is a sucker born every minute - so maybe it would increase in value/rarity.  That said (at my age), it might just be part of kid's inheritance!
