Supply + demand.

I would guess the guys bidding on the thing either lusted after it or owned one back in the day.

Reliving youth/nostalgia.

Coupled with not many left = people prepared to pay a strong price.

I was more into cars back then - I'd love a late 90s BMW E36 super tourer, but don't have the 100k or so they are moving for :p

Droooool.

Why does the transmission whine like that??

And I would pay a high price if it was a mid life crisis and take it the track every Sunday or something.

Straight cut sequential dogbox.

Watched the car that won bathurst in 97 with the brabham brothers, after a guy in the BMW club bought it - got some pics somewhere. Amazing technology in these cars. How about a box that sits in the passenger footwell with a pendulum in it that adjusts lateral brake bias depending on corner load, so you don;t lock up the inside wheels?

You can hear the box scream. But most amazing is the induction noise through the carbon airbox - with the engine at 8500rpm.



And I'm spent.
