http://thegoodfellowperspective.com/the-arizona-auction-week-and-more

Unique insight and access into the upper echelons of the automotive world. The Arizona Auction Week, and More! February 25, 2013. That more than $200 million worth of cars changed hands during Arizona Auction Week in January was no real surprise, given the buoyant atmosphere found everywhere I went. We’ll hit on a couple major trends and a few personal highlights before delving into what is behind it all. The RM lot that really bit me was a one-off 1933 Auburn B-105 Retractable Hard Top Cabriolet with su...

Unique insight and access into the upper echelons of the automotive world. From Brilliant, to Boorish, to the Way It Used to Be. March 30, 2015. With the concours season now upon us, it got me thinking about last year, and what happened. That passage of time turned out to be a real asset when reflecting on things, for it brought out the good, the brilliant, and the unexpected awful. So lets take a look. Green to take everything in. The class that likely impressed us the most was Fernandez et Darrin C...

The Craig Jackson You Don’t Know | The Goodfellow Perspective

http://thegoodfellowperspective.com/the-craig-jackson-you-dont-know

Unique insight and access into the upper echelons of the automotive world. The Craig Jackson You Don’t Know. January 14, 2013. So who exactly is the man behind the upcoming 1,400-plus car extravaganza in Scottsdale, and what makes him and his sale tick? I get branded ‘just muscle cars,’ Jackson says, but when I took over the company in the mid-1990s I really looked at the focus as postwar. No question that was a sharp (and incredibly profitable) business decision, but behind that savvy is one serious.

Making Method Out of the Madness: A Different Viewpoint on Today’s Collector Car Market | The Goodfellow Perspective

http://thegoodfellowperspective.com/making-method-out-of-the-madness-a-different-viewpoint-on-todays-collector-car-market

Unique insight and access into the upper echelons of the automotive world. Making Method Out of the Madness: A Different Viewpoint on Today’s Collector Car Market. August 12, 2013. To illustrate how far (and how quickly) the market has moved, not quite two years ago a friend and client was itching to buy a 330 GTS. I found him several examples in comparable condition to RM’s car, and all were priced at $900,000-$1 million. In other words, in less than 24 months that Ferrari model doubled in value. No dou...

Real Good Reads | The Goodfellow Perspective

http://thegoodfellowperspective.com/real-good-reads

Unique insight and access into the upper echelons of the automotive world. May 9, 2014. Doing such a deep dive requires reading a lot of other books. One-hundred-plus are listed in the bibliography, and while most all of them are quite good, some are true standouts. Over the years I’ve been fortunate to do interviews with former Ferrari chief engineer Mauro Forghieri, but those weren’t nearly enough to delve into as much detail as I wanted on Maranello’s move from front to mid-engine cars. And Heritage C...

The Plusses and Minuses of the Monterey Week | The Goodfellow Perspective

http://thegoodfellowperspective.com/the-plusses-and-minuses-of-the-monterey-week

Unique insight and access into the upper echelons of the automotive world. The Plusses and Minuses of the Monterey Week. September 20, 2013. The world’s greatest collector car orgy took place on California’s Monterey peninsula during the third week in August. Before digging into the gems and lumps of coal, lets make some sense out of the most talked about item of the week the $27 million NART Spider. But is all that enough to justify a 27 followed by two commas and six zeros? And now for the Cool/Not Coo...

Different Is Good—And Making a Comeback | The Goodfellow Perspective

http://thegoodfellowperspective.com/different-is-good-and-making-a-comeback

Unique insight and access into the upper echelons of the automotive world. Different Is Good And Making a Comeback. November 12, 2013. What makes a car different? On my last trip to Italy, Andrea Zagato, Marella Rivolta Zagato and I were hashing that out when discussing their one-off Aston Zagato DBS that was first seen at Aston’s Centenary in July. The Zagatos’ daily driver is a turbo diesel BMW Gran Coupe, and when Andrea mentioned that it was also different in terms of design, I had to disagree. Not e...

A Story That Hasn’t Been Told Before | The Goodfellow Perspective

http://thegoodfellowperspective.com/a-story-that-hasnt-been-told-before

Unique insight and access into the upper echelons of the automotive world. A Story That Hasn’t Been Told Before. July 10, 2014. For the past year I’ve been quietly slaving away on a Ferrari book with an historical storyline that has never been covered an in-depth look that focuses solely on Maranello’s fastest ever road cars (to order an autographed copy, click here). The second method is by the most important technology used at the time of production. In the first era, Ferrari relied on its 12-cylin...
