If buyer and seller agree on a price and execute on the transaction on an 'arms length' basis there is nothing 'shady' about the deal - regardless of the price.

Imagine if the Ford CEO sold all the new Ford GT straight out of his office? thats basically what Shelby did (in becker's lawsuit), undercut the dealerships and kept the cobras for themselves to sell .
but it really doesn't matter. shelby will settle suit again. 60th anniversary cobras is only 10 years away....LOL
