Found a bargain!

If I can get a hall pass from my wife to write the check I was thinking of picking this up on the way home.

I think it's a little on the cheap side. $1.5 mill is probably the right number.

Wow, what an investment strategy. Paid about $55,000. If $55K invested at 5% over 13 years would have returned about $104K. Selling at $1 Million but worth about $30-40K. Net investment loss, $60K. Man, I like to know their investment broker.

im pretty sure I was watching a mecum auction not that long ago, and the last C5 Z06 made went across the block.. had very low miles, a few thousand tops, and im 99% sure it sold for around $55k.. so good luck with that mil.. they would be very lucky to break 6 figures IMHO... but hey there's a sucker born every minute

Perhaps if you haggle you could get it for $950,000- Play the waiting game.

I wish it was in their showroom. I drive by this place when I go to my office. I would love to stop in and look. Sadly it's in Kentucky

It says the owner won it in a raffle. Now he is trying to sell it for $1,000,000. That would be a nice return on a raffle ticket.
