Little Pissed of the Coverage on Barrett Jackson

[BULLITT65]

Was it the first Z/28?( The pearl white one that Jay leno test drove?)

what is the best way to see the results or what a car bid up to?

[VINCE Z28]

It was white and the first production 001 Z, don't know if Jay drove it or not. BJ web site I'd guess?

Go to B-J's internet site - you can search the auctions by day or type, click on the lot number and pull up the results and the description. It is easy and cool to be able to see them all -

BULLITT65 I don't think the white Z is the first production Z 28 because if you look B J web site under lot #3011 there is no VIN  number, no exterior color or interior, or trans. It says " The winning bidder will receive the first production vehicle" I think Rick gets to pick the colors and type of trans.

Wait all day to see the Strickler car go across the block and as soon as its coming they cut to commercial and do not get to see it..   

Thanks FOX!!!       Is it me or do they pass over a lot of Camaros on the televised portions...??..

Just a reminder you can get a live video stream on Barrett's website.

[BULLITT65]

thanks guys for the search info. thanks vince , I agree, they will probably shelf the prototype for now.

Saw that part of the show. They said he could order options, color etc, but it would be the first retail 2014 Camaro.

[BULLITT65]

They showed the 2014 Z 28 get sold but only because it was for charity sold to Rick Hendrick for 650k. Hammer price.

even if the new Z became a collectors item how long would it take to be worth $650k???

For me and you, never. But for Mr. Hendrick, who has done this sort of thing many times, it was probably a done deal before the bidding started.  I think it would look good in the display area out front of his private collection, right beside his giant NASCAR trophy. 

[VINCE Z28]

I could be wrong, but I think he can write off any amount over the retail price of the car. For tax purposes.

[tmagda]

That's true. The excess he pays over the MSRP of the car is a charitable contribution. He can reduce his (or the corporations) taxable income by that amount, although it may be subject to certain limitations.

I didn't see it sell, any idea who bought it?

[VINCE Z28]

Don't know his name he had a black tee shirt on and his bid card was #4022.
