What is good about Mint is that it can be helpful to readers. One of our readers Tony (see comment) noticed the paint code sticker in the engine compartment. It says it is originally Balkai (Code 042) and not Colorado Orange. Balkai looks like a medium Grey Metallic. That changes everything in our opinion. 

The ’73 tii is like the Holy Grail for BMW 2002 fans. It is the last year for round tailights and small chrome bumpers plus it is a fuel injected tii. That makes it a prized piece for any BMW fan. We must say that we like the Colorado Orange color too. This is in potentially pretty rare condition with only 37,000 miles on the clock. Trust but verify. Read More

Traditional GT: ’83 Porsche 928

928 RF quarter

The GT was born out of necessity in the ’50s. Well, necessity for wealthy European folks who wanted to travel great distances in comfort on the weekends or holidays. Cars made by Ferrari, Maserati, Mercedes and others, filled the niche with luxurious cruisers capable of sustained high speeds. And of course, they didn’t want to be embarrassed when they pulled up in front of the Hotel d’Paris in Monaco, so the GT car had to be gorgeous and exclusive. Fast forward to the mid-70s. Porsche was successful with the 911 but they wanted to appeal to the client who demanded a bit more refinement, more pace and more luxury. The 928 was born, designed in part, by an American by the name of Tony Lapine. Read More

McKeel Hagerty and his astute team selected the Acura NSX as a modern car that has collectible potential. It is in good company along side the Lotus Elise, Audi TT and Dodge Viper. We’ve never featured a NSX before so we took a look around and came up with an exceptional candidate that has been treated to extensive upgrades. The NSX has covered only 29,300 miles to date. It is a 6-speed in Silverstone Grey Metallic with black leather interior. Read More

Cute: ’62 DKW Junior

The DKW Junior offered more luggage space and a wider cabin than the VW Bug, and customers willing to pay an extra 160 Marks for the optional heater had the advantage in winter of a car that warmed up much more rapidly than the Volkswagen with its air-cooled power unit. In 1962, like today’s featured cutie, had its cylinders bored out to 796 cc but claimed power output was unchanged however the torque was marginally increased and the wheel size grew from 12 to 13 inches. Incredible! Read More
