We have been watching the Barrett-Jackson auction for the past several days and can't believe the sales prices - a 1971 Plymouth Hemi Cuda for $525,000!!!! Yes, a lot of these cars have been seriously modified but that Cuda couldn't have sold for much more than $5,000 brand new. And since then several cars have been sold for more than a million dollars, and not just Bugattis. So my question is, why? My first thought is the buyers are realizing they are watching the end of an era and, soon, they won't be making any more, especially of these serious performance ICE cars.
We did see one Tesla model S Plaid sold.
While not an ICE fan a lot of these cars are works of art and, if I could afford it, I would love to have at least one of them to park in a very nice heated garage just to enjoy looking at it, sitting inside it and, every once in a while, starting it up and listening to that engine. I hope to never again purchase an ICE vehicle for every day use.
