    914, and the R53... If I ever get a classic, I would want an unmolested one in decent rebuildable shape... Not somebody's beat down track rat.

    Brian it is a MINI/Mini board. For the RX-7 it would have to have gone against something to far down to not put it against the same thing again.

    I also wanted to finish up so you could start the next round

    So the MINI/Mini takes it over the Porsches 10 to 2 and 9 to 3 respectively.

    Final round. For the championship of used cars.

    You called it.

    Man. Tough. I guess, since I've never had one, I'll take the classic, even though it wouldn't be a better driving experience than the R53. With the Castrol livery, it'd be a hoot at autocross as well as cars-n-coffee.

    Classic, by a nose.

    Sorry Nick, it's just that my Project Management OCD has been kicking in during this edition when I realized that by starting off with 36 cars in the first round that there was not going to be a clean way to finish it off.

    I'll let someone else take the next round because I'm second guessing the enthusiasm around what I had originally planned.

    Since I have had a couple R53s I will go with the Classic Mini.
