Re: Bids Near $3 Million For Dukes' 'General Lee'

Something's not adding up here. I can clearly remember watching a TV show not long ago in which they deailed how many hundreds of "General Lee's" they used. There was no one single car. Four million bucks for one of many? Doesn't make sense to me.

Something is stinky. I don't get it either, bid jumped from 3 million to 4 million?

Much cooler car:

Quote:
By way of comparison, the auction house Christie's will be selling a 1963 Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta Lusso, a car once owned by Steve McQueen, at an August 16 auction. Christie's estimates the value of that car at $800,000 to $1.2 million.

Re: Bids Near $3 Million For Dukes' 'General Lee'

It's up to 10 million now. Damn I would have bought it for 8 million, but 10 I don't is a good deal.
