220K for a backdraft? Wow, that was a powered by alcohol purchase.

I guess when you have more money then you need, you can just do with as you please. I would like to see the bio of the buyer.

The car is 10 years old.

Seller is ecstatic!!! Laughing all the way to the bank. Probably got at least twice what he expected.

Holy cow!

That is insane $ for a BDR...and as a BDR owner myself, I'm encouraged.

Maybe the body was finished in actual copper leaf. ��

Price
 
I am with you. When someone comes along and pays ridiculous money for a car, the whole market benefits.

Superformance Auction.
 
One just went for $190k.

Kirkham and Shelby cars seem about right when you add buyer's premium, but the price on the Backdraft? WTH? Maybe the frame is filled with cocaine and the car is just a drug mule.

All it takes is two men falling in love with the same woman.

Dang, I'm glad I bought mine when I was young and stupid. I'm way too smart to piss away that kind of money now.:cool:

Some of these cars may have been attached to a charity. The FFR that hammered for $100K was but one example.

I see the 84 ERA 427 from the Gary Thomas Collection, bought 72K (Good deal IMPO). What did the Yellow Drag-on Snake, and CSX-3281 bring??

FredG 01-15-2022 05:29 AM

Dragon Snake
 
$1,375,000

Does the BDR buyer realize it’s a replica? Way overpriced / over bought by about 150k+!

Most of the cars are way overpriced. This one does take the cake though.

Unique427 01-15-2022 11:53 AM

I suppose everyone with a car on cobracountry.com who has seen that
just raised their price $10-20K.

Has it become a seller's market due to supply chain issues?

Or, is this just an example of more money then brains?
