I thought that $56,000 was low for an original one owner 1970 914-6. Expected to see $20K more. What does everyone else think?

Hard to say since the video footage was terrible and it was hard to see the car.

Please excuse my ignorance, but do these bidders have a chance to look closely at the car before bidding?

Seems the Euro buyers have backed off and the market show that.

We're the fenders stretched or did it just appear that way in the video. 56k is definitely higher than 5 years ago.

Yes, there are a number of preview days before the auction and one can also view directly before auction start. Cars can be fully evaluated by your expert, if desired, although David Gooding and his staff do a fantastic job of evaluating every car and making sure that even the slightest deficiencies, if any, are fully noted. The car was stock, without flared fenders, and being a one owner car, I thought would bring a premium.

Agreed that the uploaded video quality posted on YouTube was terrible, but if you had logged on to the actual Gooding and Company auction website and viewed the video Live Auction feed, it was just like being there, which I skipped this year. There is the second half tonight of the big ticket (if USD$10.25M was not enough for a car last night!) cars and I will be watching it live.

Why do you think $56k is not a premium?

More than I would pay for that car... seems like a premium to me.

The reason the footage sucked was because someone was using a hand-held camera to take a movie of their TV when this was being broadcast...

Dude, that car's white (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif)

Goodings had put a Pre-Auction Estimate of $30-40k - Somebody (or two) must have gotten excited
