That's like straight off the cover of an early 90s Modified magazine, but worse.

I just tried to bid 30k
It wouldn't take more than the listed 25k

I then tried to raise it to 30k, and it tries to force only $100.00 increases

I'm not an ebay guru.
And I doubt I'd pay whatever the reserve probably is. But I'd sure as heck pay him 40k right now if he'd hand me the keys.

And I know Yaw don't think that car should be driven, but if it were mine, it'd get driven.

I'm 60
That's bucket-list stuff right there.

If you get it. Please change the rims.

It's a show car. They are always over the top.

That is one Ugly car. Some folks have no taste at all.

But, that'd do very little to address the outrageousness of the whole thing.

I mean, that thing has a virtually brand new blown Z underneath it. With 70K of CRAZY on top of it.

I guess being old, and well behaved for 6 decades,..... It's just so tempting!

Why dabble? If my kids (grown) are gonna raise their eyebrows, give a good reason.

I'm 62. So..........
Change the rims and change the color then. Because I need a welding helmet to look at it.

Lol. 62? You should be egging me on!

Doesn't look like anyone is going to trigger my auto-bidding. Doubt my set cap would hit reserve anyways.

If I had to guess, the reserve is 40https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b2bca30bfd.jpg

I bet the reserve is more like $50,000.:shakes head:

snakebite 05-25-2018 12:22 AM

Doubt it.
I found it listed at a dealer for less than 50.

wink wink

In my time. I've seen a lot of vehicles like this. They dump a ton of money into them. Then let them go a short time later. And they want top dollar plus for all the parts they installed. I've seen the price on some about double the price of a new one. :shakes head:

You could buy mine and add a super charger for ~30k. I find mine to be much more tastefully modified. Just enough to make it different, but still holds true to basic form.

Not my taste but to each their own.
Why would someone put so much money into a car and not drive it?

I work for an aviation based company. (worldwide) Our customers are the kind of folks that either buy a $20-40million jet, or are willing to rent one for $thousands per hour.
Admittedly, the vast majority are normal folks when it comes to their cars/trucks. By that I mean they purchase mass produced vehicles that are relatively invisible.
But, these are also the folks that buy the Lamborghini, Ferrari, McClaren, Rolls,....... And the occasional outrageous vehicle you see above.

They don't need it for transportation. Instead, it's just for FUN.

It happening all the time. They think that they can make money off of the car by doing all of this crazy stuff. The 4x4 trucks are the worst.

I don't know. I'm not sure many folks expect to make a profit off of extravagant customization. It's pretty widespread that it doesn't work.
Sometimes folks just have the means and the passion to follow through on a vision, without the burden of needing to defend it. It's not really defendable.

Again, I'm both a little bit WTH and yet totally smitten by the thing. Of course I don't think it is "worth" the money it took. But I didn't fund it. :)

I have a bucket-list truck I'm almost finished with. It's not a redneck approach, although I'm not anti that kind of thing. Instead it's just the truck that nobody would build. There's not enough market for it, I guess.

Funny thing, nobody thinks someone is crazy if they buy a BMW X5M. But that benign looking SUV is $120k
It has fantastic power, handling, and luxury. (even the stereo is about $7k, I believe?)

But I'm not an SUV guy. Been driving pickups for 40 years.

So, my bucket-list is a truck BMW or Audi or Porsche would build if they built pickups.
Or put another Way, an X5M pickup.

Like I said, almost finished. And remember, I have the budget of an X5M, to be totally fair.

Still, many folks think it's indefensible. They might even like the truck! But when they ask the inevitable "how much did those Brembos cost?", they immediately think it's not worth it.

Ever drive a 6000lb vehicle that will go into a full on ABS event on sticky tires in the dry?
It's AWESOME!

And finally, I never even considered for a second I could get the money back on resale. To use that as a determining factor would nix a bucket-list item immediately.

Bucket-list items aren't for the reasonable or practical period of life. You usually gotta wait until it doesn't matter if you go down in a blaze of glory. Lol

By the way, nobody else bid.
And I didn't win.
But I did find the car. (if the listing is legit) I'm trying to get it out of my mind, but it's stung me pretty good. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...427c4ffcc6.jpg
