Dollar Down, Drive Up: Isdera Imperator Headlines a Miami Auction

TL;DR Summary
A tongue-in-cheek take on the dollar’s decline nudging buyers toward a rare 1991 Isdera Imperator 108i Series 2 at RM Sotheby’s Miami auction. The piece notes the car’s scarcity (one of ~13), its 1,378 miles, and a pre-auction estimate of $650,000–$850,000, while mixing economic commentary with car-nerd enthusiasm and a reminder that this isn’t financial advice. Last sold in euros in 2021, the car exemplifies luxury-collection risk as currency fluctuations loom.
