yeah, if people are using
Barrett Jackson for price estimates there's no
telling how crazy the pricing will be. I was dumbfounded at
the prices some of the cars went for. I'm no expert on the muscle cars/hot
rods but the cars I was familiar with seemed to
have gained lot of value! Is there a recovery at work
on collector cars?

Is that "real world" pricing or I'm on TV auction
pricing? I noticed an F50 also went for
$1.375M and they have been stuck at $500K or less for years.
Extremely
low mileage F40's are doing around $500K now.

So
I'm laying in bed (it's been 8 weeks mostly) while
my new knee heals and I'm bored so I
check out Comcast On Demand and find a program
called Fast N Loud.. They're a shop in Tx that
buys cars, fixes them and sells them.
So a guy shows up with a trailer
and a wrecked F40 in the back.
The Fast N Loud guy says Wow - that's a
million dollar car fixed
up! The seller wants $400K and
the body is broken along each side
and all the bodywork forward of the windshield
is gone.
I cannot imagine drivable F40 going for a
million. A broken one
like this would bring more than 100K
IMO - and I know almost nothing about
the prices for this
stuff.
There's not much on
the net about prices other
than 1 in UK with 42K miles
for £330
So I think
my initial impression
was right - that paid
WAY too much for that
car showing a complete
ignorance for Ferrari
values. Of course the
seller made out great!
Well, no
more of that
program!
Those guys are
stupid! Back to
my tapes of Le Mans!
Let me know if my
logic is wrong....
Take
care -
