At least the wrecked exotics died doing what they loved, instead of rotting away :|

I hate this stuff even more.. such desirable cars just rotting away, it's SUCH a shame.

American cars...desirable?

Muscle cars, you know, the desirable ones that bag $2-300K on Barret Jackson.

No muscle cars, except for historically significant ones (ones seen in movies, etc), get that much, anywhere.

Ferraris, Lambos, Bentelys, go new for more than that.

Used McLaren F1s are now going for nearly $2 million.

Most people who buy muscle cars do not have that sort of money. There is more money in foreign cars.

LOL.. wrong..

good years on Mustangs, Camaros go for $100k+ easy

Ferraris, Lambos, Bentelys, go new for more than that.

This statement has nothing to do with your argument that muscle cars don't sell for a lot.. Most people that want to buy a muscle car do not consider a McLaren to be the end all.

You continue to prove that you don't know how to read.

I said only historically significant muscle cars will go for that much, and that car happens to be historically significant and very rare.

Find me the average auction price of the average car of that model, the mass produced version.

Many used, mass produced Ferraris and Bentleys in car dealerships will go for that much. Ferraris at that price are nothing. They sell them off used exotic car lots in suburbia. No need for an auction. No one is impressed with $247,500.

And while the fool who bought that ninja turtle green chevy is putting a cover over it, and gently placing it in a humidified garage, real people with money are driving their $247k Ferraris and Bentleys in the snow, with salt and sand on the ground, not caring. Because $247k is nothing.

And if you want to compare historically significant foreign cars to historically significant America cars, we can go there, as the highest price ever paid for a car was for a 1931 Bugatti (about $10 million).

Anything less than $1 million is an "everyday driving" vehicle.
 
Getting back on topic, somebody find the pics of the car that wrecked into three pieces, hitting a deer and/or a tree.

Good ol' I-80. I HATE that highway. It's like a dragstrip for semis. I've been blasted off the road in my little car more times then I cared to count when I've traveled on it.

I love their description: "This driver, who was able to afford a 1 million dollar car, lost his life to a careless decision."

He was able to afford a 1 million dollar car! Oh, the humanity!

the only strip of I-80 i've been down is between omaha, nebraska to the wyoming border... somewhere around there we get off to go to Newcastle. but i haven't ever been run off the road... yet... *knocks on wood*

semis do run a little too fast there though

scam... all they give you is a list of salvage car dealers. That car is long gone. It was for sale by the insurance company and there were tons of people ( with salvage dealers license) trying to sell it online for profit (ie ebay wrecked enzo for 600K, buy it off the insurance comapny for 500K, make $100K). Last i heard the car was shipped back to italy for rebuild.
