What is up with the BLACK floor pans. It must be one of those COOKIE Restorations. If the Yenko came out looking like that, I think I would PUKE! Just my .02 cents.

Yes. Mike from WWMC made me 'an offer I couldn't refuse' & now he owns this neat piece of history. Rare opportunity for someone to own a real 'double' RS COPO.

That's kind of a shame that the car changed hands for no other purpose other than a quick profit which continues to run up the prices on the Camaros. I'm not referring to you Patrick, but WWMC. But I guess I would probably have done the same thing especially since they just layed off 35 people here at work so I'm trying to see where I stand financially if I'm in the next round.

JeffH,
I share your pain.... as prices on these extraordinary cars climb, availability to us ordinary people becomes less likely. But don't blame the seller, the seller's agent, or the buyer, for that matter. We all know that price is set, where supply crosses demand. Supply, for all intents and purposes is fixed, so the only thing that moves price, is demand. Demand is high, so prices are high. It will continue until price gets so high, that demand freezes, or drops. Then price will drop until it reaches equilibrium, again. |

All parties are at fault with these quick turn bar raising muscle car sales. I guess I will just have to wait till the baby boomers are out to pasture or the stock market starts to boom again till I get my shot at owning one of these cars.

Frank, I guess I feel it is no one's "fault" but rather the law of supply and demand. If you and I cornered the market on 69 Yenkos, for example, then we might sell our cars back and forth to each other, until we jacked the price up really high. Then we might be able to bilk some outsider into agreeing to pay the "going rate" for Yenkos, and sell him one of ours. However, he would still have to be a willing buyer.
Buying Yenkos is not the same as buying necessities like food, power, etc. (although some might argue that Yenkos are necessities. You can't equate selling a Yenko at a high price can not be equated to selling food to a starving man. |

Maybe I should have used the word "responsible" then.
