It's nice but the wheels are backwards! I had to say it.

Very nice, but all the photos are ruined by the idiot that put the wheels on.

Re: 57K Polo on BaT

Isn't that amazing. They are finally being recognized. Maybe I won't need to live to 100 years old for my '97 to be worth something.

Re: 57K Polo on BaT

It's a great price, but please realize that everything is expensive right now. In 6 months that could be a $15K car. (Still not bad!)

Re: 57K Polo on BaT

Collector car prices have gone through the roof. A BMW Z8 was a $120,000 car and now they're seeing 200K plus.
I saw a Fiat Jolly go for 130K That is something I truly can't understand. It's a glorified golf cart.

Re: 57K Polo on BaT

Knowing the buyer of this $20k SVX as I do (know who he is, location, and been around him several times) money was no object for him and he is slowly adding Subaru products to his exotic car collection.
I believe he recently paid a pretty high price for a 360 not long ago and if he doesn't have a BRAT yet he will find one soon.

That's exactly how a car becomes a Collector Car. A few of these guys get the idea to buy one and the word gets around. Then it snowballs into "Hey, I gotta get one of those, so and so has one in his collection and he paid $xxx". Then the magazines start to pick up on it. That's what is beginning to happen with the SVX.
