A short week since I was on the road with sporadic internet. But the rest of the week was pretty good! Check out these beauties:

1981 VW Scirocco Survivor For Sale: 16k Original Miles! – Oh the memories! Such a great looking design and when was the last time you saw one this clean in original black and tan?!
1976 Volkswagen GTi Period Modified Car For Sale in Portland – Another class of ’92 fantasy car!
2001 Audi S3 Euro-Import: Be the King of Your Audi Club! – There can’t be but a handful of these in the states. Better be an uber fan for the asking price though…
1986 Porsche 944 Turbo with Low Miles For Sale in Gray on Black – Always a sucker for a low miles 951 for sale!
1987 PORSCHE 928 S4 with 5 Speed Manual: Perfect eBayMotors Listing – The photos for this sale ad are good enough for bedroom wall posters! Black on Parchment: Hot!
Honda CBR900RR: What’s the Market Like For These? – When was the last time you saw one of these in good condition? Me neither.
Fancy a Brand New 2009 Aprilia RS125? – Aprilia finally brings over a 2 stroker for us! But it’s not road legal 🙁
1990 Honda MC21 NSR250R SE: Low Miles, Titled, and Great Price – Rebodied MC-28 in Repsol livery. Yum!

Thanks for reading, and if you have an outstanding German Car For Sale or a Rare Sportbike, I’d love to list your ad for free! Just drop me an email.

They’re not just crawling out of the wood work, they’re taking over! I can’t believe how many super low mileage cars of this era have sprouted up this week. Continuing that trend is this incredible low mile and perfectly stock (and more importantly unmolested) 1984 Rabbit GTi that Bring A Trailer has exclusive:

BaT Exclusive: 31k-Mile 1984 VW GTI Mk1

Considering the original miles of this car versus the other one featured recently, this is a no brainer. This car won’t be for sale for long.

Restored MK1 and MK2 GTi’s: These Are Real and Not for Kids

BringATrailer beat me to the punch featuring this great MK1 GTi for Sale on VWVortex (FL, $10.5k):

I had actually spotted this MK2 GTi, for sale by the same owner as the car above, this morning surfing the Vortex before work:

1992 Black GTI 2L 16 valve, 100% restored to factory correct specs (FL, $11.5k):

A bunch of whining kids start piling on about how high the prices are on these cars in both threads. While the prices are potentially record setting, I have actively been on the lookout for a clean MK2 GTi or GLi and examples of decent quality often have asking prices of $5k+. The fact that these are FAR nicer than the decent one’s I’ve seen, they should command a significantly higher asking. And while the kids would love to own these, the kids that grew up with these cars can see the value and can actually afford to buy them. I doubt they’ll sell overnight, but an enthusiast or a creative investor will eventually step up.
