Today on Yahoo "news" I saw an Auto Journalist wrote: "last Hemi Cuda built had a bid of $4.1 million in 2005 without a sale." Note the "without a sale" phrase. Personally I feel the journalist is an ass for even listing the No Sale "Bid Figure". The only SOLD figure he quotes is "around a million". So of course with his logic the next Hemi Cuda to hit the blocks should pull over $4 million as his article stated. BTW I didn't look up that No Sale Hemi Cuda but recall Barrett Jackson's head honcho Craig Jackson (surprise surprise surprise in a RESERVE AUCTION) ran his ever so rare Hemi Cuda (NO SALE) through several years ago and I wonder IF that Hemi Cuda could be the writers source of that $4.1 figure? ............
Please read this article and note the source:

If I had 4 million dollars...
The Cuda would be very far down the list...would not even be on the first page. ::)

Since the world supply of 61 Meteor wagons seems to all be in my driveway i could artificially raise the value of them/it by putting mine in an auction and having a shill bidder and a reserve to bump it to some absurd number and not sell. Then potential buyers will see how valuable it is and need to snap it up while they can.
I think that might be how the rich people stores work. They looking like the last day of a closeout sale with almost nothing on display. I suppose it looks like you are buying something more exclusive when there aren't fifty the same on a shelf.
