They also mention the sale of rare cars, including a Ferrari 288 GTL that sold for $3.88 million and a Porsche 911 Speedster that sold for $307,500. The hosts reflect on the motivations behind selling these items and the impact on the market. In this conversation, Erik and Jacques discuss their love for both cars and sneakers, and how the stories and nostalgia attached to these items make them valuable. They talk about the cult-like following of certain car models, such as the FJ40, and the rarity and uniqueness of certain sneakers.
