Market commentary

A decent early Porsche, and these cars have really been climbing in value lately. The top bid is not near enough to do it justice but the shoddy cosmetic work no doubt deterred bidders. John Apen of manheimgold.com propounds a theory called the Game of Attribution: attributing the quality of unseen factors from visible observations. This car did not score well in the Game.
