Mighty Heritage

[KennethClay]

So, $500,000 or so for Robin egg blue paint and zero performance difference or racing pedigree.

I do not get it.

When I bought my first GT, the difference was about $40k for a Heritage. And I thought the same thing--20% more for blue paint? As an "investment", that would have been the way to go, obviously.

But I wanted the traditional American racing colors of white w/blue stripe, and I've been happy with it!

Call it stupid, speculate drunk bidding, what ever you want. Regardless, it's the 1st 05-06, that I know of, to crest 7 figures. I used to discount crazy auction results, but you can not. They are documented comps. Onward and upwards....

Two data points almost simultaneously. Let's see what others bring before we call it a comp. And will that extend to other colors?

Ehh, I'm still driving mine. At 90K, it ain't ever gonna be a museum piece. Like my 1973 911, which has almost no rust damage, it doesn't have the original engine and tranny. But it's an excellent driver.

Like any other good statistical analysis, the high and low get thrown out anyway, so one sale does not a trend make Hmmm....think Yoda said that in a Star Wars movie
