I once asked the question of how many Porsches were sen in the movie Bullet. If I recall there were 3 Porsches seen. The Yellow 356 Cab, a 356 Speedster and a 356 Coupe.

WHO CARES? And it wouldn't go to a foreigner...Its value is the fact that it is MOVIE memorabilia. Just like Dorothy's RUBY SLIPPERS, or the Maltese Falcon.

I always did think it was a crummy movie that only had one good sequence.

I just remember seeing the same VW Beetle in the car chase in two scenes, rather out of place. Always thought that was hilarious.

It was the number of hubcaps that flew off the Charger that I got a kick out of.

He couldn't afford it....Rumor is that well into 7 figures was offered...and turned down because the "recluse" has more money than he needs already..

Hate to clue ya to this..but not everybody is about money and when collectable cars change hands they don't always go to those who would bid higher.
