Lots of $$ spent on this one!

Yep..I'm thinking a final bit of around $60K. Less than half of the new price. Kind of like having a 15" Dick....a great crowd pleaser, but what are you gonna do with it?

Is it too soon to use the term crowd?

Damn, that thing is a beast. 750hp. My pals 08 GT3RS has 420 and it scared the crap out of me - but it was predictable.

Anything over 500hp should have AWD, or tires the width of Manhattan.

Make my 730hp in a Trans Am spec Mustang race car.

Right, you'd shoot a porno or two and then realize it was more of a pain than it was worth.

I'm sure it's easy to drive in the rain or cold weather.

When you said beast I was thinking more along these lines: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2014-mercedes-benz-g63-amg-6x6-2/

Isn’t the new GT500 KR running like 900hp?

sc_rufctr 12-19-2021 12:26 AM

Now that is a proper muscle car!

LOL, I see what you did there.

$61K with couple of hours to go...looks like I may have guessed a little low on the final Bid price.
"Proper Muscle car"... is pretty accurate. There was one parked in the service entrance of the local Ford dealership some years back when I was there to buy fresh wiper blades. It looked absolutely intimidating when compared to my stealthy Bullitt model.

Really...too much car for logical street use.

(edit) Boy, was I off in my guess. Sold for $69K

Not enough car for that engine.
More like racing dyno sheets.

I'm more a Camarow guy.

Beyond the reach featured one of those...
