May: white, automatic, reserve not met
Wimbledon White convertible 8T03R206168 was offered on Bring a Trailer in May 2026. The listing said it was first delivered to Minar Ford in Minneapolis, restored around 2014 and accompanied by an Elite Marti Report and build-sheet copy. Bidding stopped at $198,000 on May 29 with the reserve unmet. Its result is evidence of buyer interest at that point in time, not a completed transaction.
October: red, automatic, sold
Candyapple Red convertible 8T03R213222-03947 closed on October 9, 2026 with a published $200,000 sale. The seller described an original Minnesota sale, later California history, an engine rebuild and a Deluxe Marti Report. The auction took place while the car was offered from Ontario, Canada; that does not establish where it is now.
The practical comparison
The $2,000 difference between the displayed figures is visually tempting, but the outcomes are different. Their equipment, originality claims, restorations, documentation and conditions differ as well. A useful market notebook pairs each number with its VIN, date, outcome and source. It does not turn two public appearances into a universal KR price.
