I didn't watch all the coverage, but for the portions that I did see, it seemed to me like, with a few rare exceptions, the cars were going pretty cheap. But I know from experience that many times the cars look much better on TV than they do in person.

That's been the general consensus that many cars were borderline junk.

We may have reached the saturation point in auctions where all the good cars get sprinkled in among the rest of the junk. Too many clones and tribute cars out there now.

Seems like a pretty good deal, even if for the conversation it would generate at cruise nights and shows.

Nova is in my garage now. Thought I was going to own it at 12k for a while. People were sleeping it was a great buy the car is very nice! Wish I would have bought the Black LS6 now too but was a little gun shy for some reason. A lot of junk but there were a few good cars and deals to be had if you were paying attention
