[viperprowler1]

...$112,000 plus 10% buyers premium for a total acquisition cost of $123,200. Pretty sweet!

That is dumb $. Got my brand new 2010 ACR Nurburgring edition for less then that. In fact the window sticker was just $113,***.xx on mine.

I'd like to know what's up with that because its 25%+ more than what it should have been LOL. I dunno if it's sweet or bunk.

 

[viperprowler1]

Anybody know if there was something unusual or special about this one that would rationalize such a premium?

 

[robiferretti]

its all BS, one thing I learned is a few people with money are stupid but not most. People dont buy things 25% above what they are worth. Just fake buyers to make auction seem like a good place to bring a car.

Impulse buyers don't care how much extra they are paying.

I'm with Anton. As much as I dislike Barrett Jackson some of those foolishly rich clowns get a little too buzzed up and start thinking with their wieners and trying to impress people. IMHO.

I've always thought that there is a "Barrett Hysteria" that goes on there. Look at the stupid prices paid for resto mods and clones. It's crazy. Several times I've seen the same car run through again the next year and it doesn't get half the original money--however the commentators never mention that. Mecum Auctions have much more realistic prices due to the lack of hype.---Dave

A local attended the auction yesterday. Here is a bit of what he had to say." The first ticket was 450 and each additional was 100 each. This included our way in the door(mon-sun), bidding,10 drinks per day and block access."Man, B-J is rollin in the dough!

2010 Snakeskin green ACR with drivers stripe only 700 miles on it listed at 92k.
So they probably would take 85K.
Maybe the best color ever and it's a 2010. Now that's the one to buy.
