I can confirm that some 12-14 years ago, CS did indeed turn down a cash offer of $25M for the car from "an overseas buyer".
At this time, CSX2000 is the highest selling small block Cobra in the world. However, don't look at it as a plus, as the secondary market for these cars has taken a hit in the last 15 months, and I suspect only cars with "ownership or race history" will be maintaining their value. All other owners may have missed the peak of the selling market.
Just my two cents worth.
