But car shows and even concours events are beginning to feature and celebrate classic station wagons because so many people do love them. At the 2024 Audrain Newport Concours and Motor Week a 1961 Chrysler New Yorker Station Wagon won first place in the category American 1960 – 1965. How do you know a car’s value and what you should buy or sell it for. They also discuss low ball offers and people who always feel like they need to get a deal even if the price is already below market value. What is the right price for the wrong car? Sometimes people are searching for a very specific car and end up buying something completely different. They also discuss the reasons people buy cars – it could be simply to drive or maybe they want to win a car show. And some people want to buy a car to drive but end up not buying it because it’s too perfect. What is the right price to pay for a car. They discuss car appraisals. There are three levels of appraisal. One level of appraisal is for insurance value for replacement, there is IRS fair market value if you are going to donate it or if it’s part of an estate and there is marketable cash value if you are going to sell it or liquidate. Donald also talks about his time on the TV Show ‘What’s My Car Worth’ with co-host Keith Martin of Sports Car Market Magazine. It taught him what he needed to look for when buying a car at auction – many are polished and look great with low mileage, but doesn’t drive very well. If car at an auction has a full tank of gas is often a good sign. Some tips include making sure you save money from the budget for repairs. Don’t spend every penny on buying the car because the car may need repairs, which may become apparent after you drive. Also, don’t buy a car and drive it across country to get it home to save money on shipping.

They also review a car that has been in inventory for a little while – a 1941 Cadillac Series 63 Touring Sedan. Keith Martin of Sports Car Market Magazine joins to discuss his weekly blog. The topic this week is the Portland Bring A Trailer Meet and Show. Keith discusses how amazing it is that an online company of basically anonymous people created events where people can meet each other in person to talk cars. People use Randy Nonnenberg’s Bring a Trailer sales history to understand the values of cars. Keith said BaT may have missed an opportunity to explain Bring a Trailer and what is is and what they do because there were probably a lot of people who didn’t know what Bring A Trailer does. They discuss the fee structure and commission of auto auctions, sales as well as the Bring A Trailer format and capped fee. Stewart and Keith even discuss wine tastings and wine of the month clubs.
