I look at cars like this more in a "what would it cost me to build a car like that" -- and I couldn't build that car for 125K.... but I wouldn't pay 125K for a 5 year old build either... it's "dated" already. Still - it's probably nicer than any hot rod I own. 
$500K for Ring Brothers Camaro.... Ummmmmmmm nope.... 'Cause here's my thinking on that kind of a sale. It will NEVER be "MY" car - it will always be someones else's build... Personally.... I would have to paint it... and for 500K I want it MY WAY!!  |
I agree completely Greg. The other thing I don't get is it is a 500K "Ring Brothers Camaro". These cars have owners, I want to know how these people spend this kind of money with Ring, Troy, Foose, etc. and rarely get credit for it being THEIR car. Sure die hard guys will know the owners names, but 95% don't. These cars are sometimes 1-2 years old before the owners even take possession. I don't get it, maybe someone can educate me.
Man, you pay me 500K to build a car the way I want it, then I get to show it, drive the crap out of it, and get all kinds of publicity for my shop! How do I get one of these gigs?
