Wow, I'd take the pastel blue '73 Carrera RS, just in case he needed to jettison one of cheaper cars for gratis. Nice collection.
After watching the show, I'm not sure the owner could actually fit into any of his cars. Is that why he's selling them?
The seller obviously likes blue/white Cobras.

I was actually serious about the question, though no one here could answer it. Why not sell just one or two, why all of them? The first thing that came into my head was that the seller may not be able to fit in them anymore. He had the show's host take it for a spin and stick it in the trailer all with the owner just looking on. The trailer I can understand, but why not cruise it with good ole Wayne on the freeway? If it were $1.165MM car, I would have, no matter the reputation of the show and its host. |

I'm sure.
Regardless, I know he can drive them...and this is a less than charitable turn for this thread.
Let's drop that aspect and keep it a car discussion.

He probably needs the money. Why else would you sell in a down market? Just because he is wealthy does not mean he might not need to liquidate. My experience lately has been people selling high dollar toys because they have taken big financial hits.

Why do men usually sell all of their favorite toys at one time? It's usually only for one of a couple of reasons.... |

huh? Wayne is about 5'4" and fit. (that 's him on the right)  BTW... anyone who owns cars like this and takes time out to shoot the sh!t with someone who owns a PPOS, is alright in my book. He's good people and ruining the "hobby" for us all? WTF hobby are you in? Collecting cars or building replicas? Either way, it's zero impact. Supply and demand as well as a sharp pencil=success.
