You sure, Admin? Considering how many cars are bought and sold at auction, maybe the "too much scotch" method will give a more accurate value than you think. ;)

It will be interesting.....I tried to look it up at the Auction Site, and it isn't listed yet......This would be a great car for someone wanting an 1993R to drive......I would "gestimate" Mid-30's???? Am I close??????? No mention of condition, or documentation.......Should we start a betting Pool on this one?????
