Asking price is not selling price.
Having said that, someone actually did a pretty good job restoring that one. There are a few minor details, but i didn't see anything that would detract from it's value overall. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) PS: I hope he gets the $100k but i highly doubt it. |

QUOTE PS: I hope he gets the $100k but i highly doubt it. Allow me to be a dissenter, having gone through price rises like this before: you really don't want these cars to be going to those levels. First of all, that price is absurd. If these cars are actually bringing these numbers, then it clearly indicates a price bubble at serious risk of blowing up. That's neither good for you nor me, only for those trying to sell right now. Which means, if it goes for that, jump on the "sell" train before it leaves the station. Second, prices like this are not good for the enthusiasts. Why do we have these cars? Because they're fun to drive, easy to work on and maintain. We drive them to work on nice days (and sometimes in not-so-nice days!) because they're fun. Well, how much fun are you going to have driving your $100k (or $70k or $50k) car to work and parking it in the corporate lot next to a large-door Buick? Bet you'll give that serious second-thoughts. Nobody likes a garage queen except in Jalopnik articles. For us, the enthusiasts, the best thing to happen is a gradual, slow, incremental rise in value, such that we can enjoy these cars, afford to repair/restore them, and enjoy driving them, as they were intended. Food for thought. GA, who lusted for one of those "not really a Ferrari!" Dinos while at university... |
