FYI: Last week's eBay auction, the car was listed for $55,000 or Make Offer. It did not sell.

I've got a Contemporary, and I can tell you first hand, they're awesome cars, one of the nicer ones out there. But really, $130,000 invested in a Contemporary? This guy either doesn't know how to count, or he's really not too bright. I don't think I could spend $130K on a Contemporary if I tried. I can just see this guys thought process........"lets see, I have $130K to spend, do I want an aluminum Shelby, an aluminum Kirkham, or a really nice Contemporary that if I am really lucky I can sell one day for $58K."

Some of the claims these guys make crack me up. I love the Contemporary's, they may very well be the most little known, under appreciated cars out there, but $130K? That's downright funny.

You have to read carefully; it only says "Over $130,000 invested." it doesn't say that the investment was in the car itself.

Can you depreciate that if it's brought foreword from the previous tax year?
