911 Sold Like the Latest $60 T-Shirt



I've always felt that you don't just drive a vintage car, but you also, in a sense, wear it. You may not think like this, but people looking at you do judge you by your vintage car just as surely as they do about your cheap sneakers or pleated pants.

So, it was not that much of a surprise when the fashion site Gilt.com announced this sale. They choose a reputable partner in Dawydiak to get a car. It should be interesting to see if this car sells. The way Gilt works is they offer top notch fashion at a steep discount. Think Paul Smith shoes for $100 instead of $450.

Has this meant vintage 911s have jumped into the mainstream?
