Yeah, I just seen that. I had to laugh when that lady said her bid. I thought she was way over. Guess that's why she's there, and I'm here.

Isn't it just a gift tax that you pay during tax season? I won $5000 worth of stuff and didn't pay a dime until I filed my taxes.

I'd sell both and get a Lexus LS 430 since it is the finest automobile currently available.

In other news old lady file bankruptcy after failing to pay taxes on over $100k in prize money on game show.

If you sold both, you might as well just buy a house

I don't know, but Bob Barker must have fathered quite a few children with those models.

I dont beleive it is... in the past people have had to pay for the tax on these items...
its different when you win on a gameshow.. people have to pay the government right away on large monitary wins as well as items..

As much as I think the Viper is a sweet car, I think I'd do the same.

The cost of gas on those things must be ridiculous.
