Bid to $450K. No sale. Were any of those bids real? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

I believe they were real! I've never seen another '69 Z like that one before!

Wow... 1. Why so much for a special order color? 2. Why not take it?

Have a hard time believing 450 won't buy that car.

I don't get it either. Every time I run into a car for sale that's similar to that color people hate it and they are hard sells. Something has to be fishy here. 450 buys you a killer yenko.

Remember that in the consignment contract, the auction house has the right to bid the car up on their own, to just under the reserve, hoping a real buyer will step in and bid to get it over the reserve. Obviously the reserve was $460k.
