Mecum Berger COPO
 
Does anyone know anything about the Berger COPO that sold at the mecum auction. I was told it sold for $274,000 plus commission and was just a single copo

The Broadcast sheet with the car is a fabrication. It has too many errors to point out and besides why inform the fraudsters.
The production date on the car is 9/23 and the sale date is 9/25... is that even possible?
The car was discussed on the CRG a couple of months back, I commented at that time the paper was fake.

WOW! And I got the selling price wrong. I was told it actually sold for $297,000 plus commission .

The car is discussed in the Mecum threads on here. Doesnt look good

If it was a real Berger COPO would that price be a fair price? It seems if you figure in the fees it probably sold for about $325,000

That would probably be a record price by a good bit for a Berger 9561.

Maybe at public auction, but back when COPOs were peaking and more than Hemi Cudas more than one was sold for $300,000.00.

I believe there might be buyers fees in that price?

I thought that I was keeping pretty good records on these cars. The car in question is a “maybe” 9561 (single copo), non RS, copo with no race pedigree that has been restored (non-survivor). I don’t have any record of a car like this approaching anywhere near the price that the buyer paid. Not trying to argue - just don’t want anyone who follows this site to be misled on values. Is there data that supports the price paid for this car anywhere? I’m open to correction.

They were private party transactions so you will not find a public record. Not everything is on the internet. I was referring to the selling price of Berger Double COPOs.

I can’t speak to the Silver Mecum Camaro other than what has been discussed here. I have only seen that car on line.

I would never intentionally mislead anyone and my information is based on my first hand experience.

Many might be surprised at what some super cars and or COPOs have traded hands for privately.

Can't stop buyers from spending lots of money. Hopefully they come on this site to be educated. A private sale Berger double COPO Camaro with all original drive train recently sold for a LOT, LOT (did I mention a LOT) less than the silver car. IMO, the buyer and seller of the original drive train car did well & the transaction was more in line with current values. The silver car is a total, freaking crazy anomaly IMO. If you say that there is some $300k "private sale" transaction for a 9561 single COPO recorded, I believe you. Maybe it was the same buyer who just paid $300k+ for the silver COPO?
