Reply to "Guara in "Auto-Italia""

Hello again Franz,

Well looks like there will be two S2 Deauville’s at the next gathering as me and the wife are planning a summer trip around the Alps to coincide with it. She chooses this years summer trip I choose next years trip!

Interesting on the comparison with a 911, a car I know very well indeed. I hate to admit it but there is a 993 C2S in the garage as well. When you consider the growing popularity of and extremely healthy prices of models such as 993 RS or 996 GT3’s it ties in with the huge and ever increasing popularity of a track day, the very market something like a Guara would thrive in

I would have it as a guess that you are familiar with a British thing called a Noble, again a car I know very well having spent full day at Silverstone on the full GP circuit in one.. These things are about £60k for the full house fire breathing spec car and are doing really well in terms of sales considering it has nothing like the same name appeal as De Tomaso. Now that’s a lot of money for what amounts to not much more than a track day toy but does I think reinforce my view that something like a Guara was simply a very good car born just a bit to early and would have done a lot better born just a bit later.

Still I have no doubt that leaves you a very lucky chap and hats off to you for having one and good to see it getting the publicity it deserves.

Yours Robert
