Default Re: Interesting Collection

I have to agree. I am in my 30's and most of my friends don't even know about muscle cars let alone 60 year old classics. At all of the classic car shows I go to I am usually the youngest guy walking around looking at the cars. I just happen to love cars of all years. Something about a '36 Auburn Boattail Speedster, or a Mercedes 540k! Beautiful works of art. Maybe that is how the collecting of these treasures will go on. Seeing them not as automobiles but as true works of art. Then we will see prices go stratospheric!! (a Picasso set a record this year at $106 million)

Oh 4.6 for the Bently might be a world record for a Bently but the hightest price paid for a car is around 15 million I think a Buggati Royale and '62 Ferrari GTO sold right up in that range. But hey one you get over 10 million who's really counting????
