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?

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.

$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
