is it me...
It seems like the c-5's at the dealerships are moving pretty quickley.
Are any cars selling on this forum?
I tried to make arrangements to test run a couple nice c-5's and they were gone within a couple days.

C5s are good deals these days - especially if priced right. As with any market, sometimes you have to jump quickly or the item is gone.

true
That is true,
I would have really like to have seen the 50th annivesary that sold.
36K miles, $21K
With it getting dark so early, it leaves for weekend hunting.Sometimes they dont last until the weekend.
I guess I will have to use some vaca time on the next one

I just looked at the results of some of todays sales at Barrett-Jackson. A 2001 Mag Red 6 speed bone stock with just less then 40k sold for $25,300. That seems high for an 01 stock with 40k miles. I own an 01 that looks like it just came out of the factory, and I know if I tried to sell it I would be lucky to see $20K based on the present regular market. I have always said that the money at Barrett-Jackson is stupid money, that is to say, the people will pay the top dollar (and then some) just to say it came from the Barrett-Jackson auction.

Too many of them have more dollars than sense
!! Add in the factor of "auction fever" and presto overpriced!! B-J has pretty well killed the muscle car/enthusiast car for working class people!!

pricing
I noticed tha California seems to have the lowest prices out there(Private sellers).
Here in NJ, it seems that the Dealers have more realistic prices than the private sellers.
I could be wrong , but lately that is what I have a freind who resells cars for a living. He is going to see what is at the auctions.............
