I Bet He'd Take $449,000

He says his price is firm, I'm sure you could get it for a bit less....

Maybe a group buy, and we each get one week?

Too bad for him that Bill Gates & Paul Allen each already have one, and Warren Buffett doesn't give a flying spit about cars...

You're paying for history on top of one really fast car.
Maybe he just wants everyone to know he has a nice car and won't take 499,990??? Some folks see a nice car like a piece of art or jewelry and not a thoroughbred racing machine.

If it had to be a 959 (vs. CGT), I'd rather have one of these for about the same price.

Whoa, check out the Maserati Birdcage. 250 hp and 600 kg--I want one. Of course, I would not turn away a 959 either.

Probably. James @ Autoforum has been posting about it on F-chat in the Canada forum so they are also involved. see Fchat

It is going in the Toronto RM Auction April 6-8 - along with a nice looking 67 911S Soft Window Targa. See RM Auction

Didn't realize there was a fairly big F-car group in Canada..

Yes. There appears to be owners from coast to coast who visit that section. A good mix of old & new. Some pimply faced wannabes also, but that's the nature of Fcar & Lcar forums I guess. The post quality often leaves much to be desired however. I plan to go on a run or two with them this summer. Be nice to mingle a bit & wave the Pcar banner. There is also an active NSX group around.
