Equipment
Chrome spoke Borranis, P W, Blaupunkt AM FM, A C, covered headlights, popup driving lights, P S, P B. 36,335 miles. Known history from new. Cosmetically redone with good paint, interior and chrome. Chassis appears to be untouched, with old undercoat and a generous coating of road dirt and goo. A reassuring car restored to good, sound, usable condition. Not like new, but also not so good it cant be driven and enjoyed.
Market commentary
The condition of this 365 California is better than Greg Garrisons which sold here yesterday for $825,000. Even taking condition and mileage into account, though, the nearly 50% premium over the Garrison car is generous. When RM offered this car in Arizona in 2005 it couldnt get above $550,000 and didnt sell. It has about 440 more miles on the odometer since then and appears to have benefited from a thorough detailing but without any apparent upgrades. The value trend is clear, and rather astonishing.
