I will stick with my Superformance. A lot cheaper and probably just as fun to drive. I don't have to worry as much of a soccer mom on her cell phone plowing into me. I would be afraid to drive a million dollar cobra.

I watched that car get sold last year as I had my superformance in the same auction. Something must of fallen through or the buyer from last year is trying to flip it. It sold to someone in California I believe. I spoke to the new buyer directly after the hammer fell as they brought the car back to directly across from mine waiting to go up on the block. The rpevious seller had lifted the reserve I just dont remember how much it sold for. Interesting....

Beautiful car but was rebodied and rechassied a while back. The purity of the car is a bit sullied and it's becoming a "frequent flyer" on the auction trail and that can chase buyers away.

Rebodied and rechassied? So what's original, the VIN plate?

Pardon me while I swoon.

Whether it's a Ferrari, Hemi Cuda, Ram Air IV GTO Judge Convertible, Cobra, etc., for these big buck type cars, I know I would definitely want a "no stories" car.

However, I'll never have to worry about that problem.
