I think you will find that the high bidder knew what he was buying ....
and the final price was $410,000 PLUS THE BUYER'S FEE..... ..... so what does that come to? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img] |

At least 41K on the buyers side not including the sellers side....so that put the purchase price at 451K......I agree with John, while it's obvious that the decision was made to phrase and display it in a way that was not so obvious to a newbie per say but let's face it, it was disclosed. We all could read between the lines and know what that means. Not too many people who are new to this are going to jump into a ZL1 without knowing anything about it. You aren't going to plop that type of money done without doing any research unless you are a fool, and, as the saying goes.... you and your money will be soon parted. The average Joe is not going to get into something like this without doing his research. The information was available to make the choice..... and someone chose to pay 451K for this one.

I agree that George did everything needed to disclose the history of the car. The last thread was closed down and if this keeps up, I'd guess this one will be as well. As others have said, any interested buyer would <span style="text-decoration: underline">KNOW</span> what he would be bidding on. As for the guy who bought a bidders pass and decided to bid on it because his girlfriend said, "I like <span style="text-decoration: underline">that</span> one!", he is entitled to part with his money based on other concerns than the history of the car.
What the friggin H-ll do you all want from George???? Should he have stood up in front of the car and yelled, "This is a Re-Body! Don't bid on it if you want a REAL one!!!!!"????????????? I'm beginning to think that's the ONLY thing that would make some of you happy. Let it GO guys! It took at least 2 people to bring the price where it went. Were they BOTH fools or did they know what they were bidding on????? Verne [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img] |

From now on.... everybody that sells a rebodied car should spray paint in big letters R-E-B-O-D-Y on the side of the car to make everybody happy. Of course those people would need C-R-Y-B-A-B-Y tatooed across their forehead....

No one pays 400K for a plain Jane looking camaro. Even though the car looked fantastic no fool is paying 400 K for that car unless its rare, period. And you all know it was bought for less money than most ZL1's are worth, so the results were fair as could be. Some of you guys really are ridiculous and not professional with your comments towards George. The bidders new exactly what the car was.
As far as the DMV reg's and rules, that to me lies with the person doing the rebody. |

Could it be that "we are starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel"?
Are the really rare cars being so sought after that the prices are starting to go back up? When they do... do you think the z/28's and SS cars will go up first.... or will the very limited cars be the first to start rising? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img] .................. This car had great documentation... Good for George. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] |
