Default Re: What's your opinion of this eBay car?

This is just my OPINION.

First of all, as we know rare and desirable don't always go togather. That is the case for ME on this car.

My idea of a supercar (and the reason I joined this site) is a 60s-70s muscle car with at the very LEAST 375 h.p. and the torque to go with it, in other words, a BIG BLOCK. A 300 h.p. car is pretty anemic to me. The fact that it took a COPO order to get/make the car doesn't hold the same luster that I think of when I typically think COPO.

Then there is the color. Greens and Golds were very popular back in the days of these cars, but today MOST people want Red, Black, Blue or nearly ANY OTHER color other than Green or Gold. Oh, sure there will be a few that will chime in that they are sick of seeing the better selling desired colors, and like seeing something like this car. BUT, when it comes down to BUYING one, a lot of these guys will change their tune.

I looked at the car breifly and it appears to be a nice car, but it didn't hold my interest enough to read every word of the auction like I would if I really LIKE a car.

Nothing I would ever consider buying unless I thought I could make money on it, and then I would really have to think about it. I have a rule that I never buy any old car for resale that I would be unhappy with if I couldn't get it sold.
