I really don't need this kind of temptation.
It's surprising what delights you can buy for the prices of BMWs or Acuras or even Fords.

I thought you were a Lancia kind of guy?
Talking of classic Italian coupÃ
I didn't think Lancias were imported in any real numbers to the US. You'd have better luck finding and old Alfa. My brother had an a '73 Spider.
They were rare cars to begin with; there were a fair number imported in the '60s.
Very interesting site. Makes me think more about a Lancia. Finding the car in the barn is pretty neat. Check out the quality work on the door frame, all finished off in polished metal. http://www.eddinsmoto.com/id56.htm
Behold this beauty:
I'd be interested in getting one as good ones aren't particularly expensive--certainly about the price of a new BMW .
They may be about the price of a new BMW but not in actuality. If you have a service issue (minor or major) on most new beemers, its covered by their service agreement and can be fixed by the hundreds of service centers over the US. With a vintage car you first have to find someone that stocks the part and then someone old enough to remember how to properly work on these cars. If it is your only daily driver you have to have the means to be able to sit on it while waiting for parts or service. I wanted to buy a 67 FHC Jaguar XKE last summer and make it a daily driver. Instead I paid a little more and bought a Z4 roadster; totally different decision obviously but with the E-type my pockets would be empty as I'm stranded on the side of the road MrR
I can't help but visualize the late Marcello Mastroianni when I see this type of fine Italian gentleman's express.
