I predict a run on eBay of ZL1 engines - wow 88K.

and 357K for an Olds 442 vert? I don't care if it is one of only four red cars, somebody was drunk.

The "last" L88 Corvette was stolen - good price, buyer should be happy.

And 4.2 mil for the batmobile? What is this 2006? I thought you guys were in a recession? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

This just makes Mecum look better every time IMO. 325K for a 442? Albeit a real sharp W30............but 325K?.

Yeah Tim, I am betting there's some buyer's remorse this morning...and a hangover

Didn't they do the blue one too - 237K?...so that's 100K premium for a special color? silly. And what was with the GS Stage 1 'vert for 66K - what the heck was wrong with that car? looked great on TV...dead body in the trunk?

That guy who bought the &quot;Batmobile&quot; looked like he was pretty wasted.... he probably woke up this morning and said to himself &quot;what the hell did I do???&quot;

Rumors got out last night that the buyer is also an AZ resident which could mean he'll spend another 8-10% in in state taxes.

Did you see what he said when he was asked why? He pointed to the blonde with him and said &quot;She made me&quot;.

I want to hire that blonde to be in the audience when I auction my Charger. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]
