Default I agree with everyone's comments , except.....

I don't think the owner of the dealership, Johnathan Michaels, is really on crack , rather,he knows what he's doing, he is your typical CA. car dealership "WHORE". He makes Eliot Spitzer's costs seem like a total bargain.

You guys are right. There is no shortage of them. In fact, they have the annual meeting of the "Rich, Complete Idiots Club" in Scottsdale every January.

They are having one here next week at Palm Beach

I hope the guy finds an idiot as I sure can't find them when selling.

I plan on watching it even though it's a smaller meeting of them. When selling, maybe you should offer free booze and air time on national T.V.

Rumor has it there out there (idiots) but your point is well taken jwd, how come I can never find one when I'm selling something?

I usually meet them at a bar with the bank next door..start the sale at noon then to the bank before 4pm hoping they are still able to walk to the bank & hoping they actually have some money in their account

I think that this guy is drunk when you can build the same car for less than 80,000.00 no problem. What do I know, he may find someone with to much money.

This car has been on Ebay now for the third time. If my memotry serves me right it has achieved about 50k/60k on both previous occasions. Looks nice

100 times better car for over $50K less. Only a complete idiot would consider the one on E-Bay.

Good idea.

I would love to have XLR's car, if only something I own would sell to free up some more money. I use to always have a buffer (money) now I am broke and can't even afford supper.

He will sell it faster by asking $59,000 for the car and selling the signed glove box door for $80,000. Then the buyer can send a new glove box door to Shelby with a check for a $100 to sign it. There are idiots who would pay $80,000 for the door. The other day they were bidding on a Shelby patch for $39.95 which is the same patch you can by from Branda for $7.95. Plenty of stupid buyers on ebay!

Anyone else notice that there is no interest being expressed in this car, so far? The guy taking the pictures must have one leg much shorter than the other one. I have never seen so many angled shots in one car ad.

It was probably his wife/girlfriend taking the pictures. I'll bet her name is "Eileen".
