Price doesn't count, cause the proceeds all went to charity. Those auctions always go crazy, cause they are tax writeoffs for the rich dudes

i love this...

"From Rumor to Instant Legend in the Blink of an Eye. Chevrolet presents the very "First Retailable Unit Built" Corvette ZR-1 for auction at Barrett-Jackson on Saturday, January 19, 2008 with all proceeds from the auction will benefit The United Way. GM AND BARRETT-JACKSON MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION OF ANY KIND, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, CONCERNING THE VEHICLE (INCLUDING NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE)."

so there's no manufacturers warranty on the car? wtf?

I dont think those guys need it seeing what kind of money there throwing around.:wooo

For the mega rich it is a GREAT deal, Huge tax deduction plus a first of car that will be worth much more than sticker. He can sell it make a nice little profit and still have had the deduction.
