Yeah, that is a pretty sweet car. I couldn't imagine a car that size with that much HP.
I figured it was going to sell for a lot, but I would never have guessed $5,000,000. Plus another $500,000 on top of that for the buyers commision.
Crazy stuff.

Why the hostility? Its his money and he can do with it what he pleases. That's what's great about this country. On a much smaller scale, I just blew $900 on mods this week, maybe I should have given that money to the poor instead...

I see your point. 5 million is a lot, but people spend millions on yahts, horses, and crappy ass paintings made by retarded people, so why not spend millions on a beautiful (IMO), very fast, very powerful, historical car?
