(I appologize if this subject is a repost, but I couldn't find it anywhere else)

I thought the 2.17million dollar Hemi 'Cuda at Barett Jackson was crazy, this one is just nuts!
Bid got up to 4.1mill but didn't hit the reserve...

  Is that alot? 5 milllion $$$ aint that much really. That's just Vegas chow line pocket change to some people. :D
"Let me explain something to you, um i am not Mr. Lebowski, you're Mr. Lebowski. I'm the dude, so that's what you call me. That or his dudeness, or duder, or you know, el duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing."

It isn't really about the car anymore with those things.  It's just bragging rights for who will pay the most for one.  It proves who has the biggest peepee.

Cripes - there's 10 others to chose from! ;D I'd hold out for the plaid one with the sky blue pink sealskin interior.

Thats Bill Weiman's Cuda, I know he has a couple of other Cuda's too that he paid a couple of Million for too.  Must be nice to be able to spend that kind of jack.

BW is a collector and shares his cars for everyone in the hobby to enjoy.  As far as stupid, ::) someone in his position has made very intelligent financial decisions to be able to buy a collection of awesome mopars.

It's not even a 70 cuda.
The 71 is alright but I just don't like the grill of the 71 compared to the 70. the 71 grill is just too busy.  I guess that comes from being a CHarger guy.  ;D

Bill drove that car last year to the Vegas show and had it parked it front of the Cannery Hotel.  He drove it up from Phoenix.

If he lives in Arizona I want to know why he has Missoula Montana plates on the car?

Ghoste

If you can afford to buy millions of dollars worth of car, you can afford to winter in Arizona.

Just goes to show some people have too much money. I am all for socialism, if they can throw that much cash away on a car then they can also give a few million to the poor people.

I know bill pretty well as a friend and really bashing him for buying the cars? I don,t understand i can tell you he has not always had big money and isn,t a silver spoon guy he is very down to earth as he was probably in the same boat many of us are in just a few years ago. Just found the key to making some serious coin. I have driven the white vert pictured as well as some of his other cars, He threw me and another buddy the keys( now if you owned that caliber of car would you let friends test drive it?) Really there are many guys just turning the cars but he is enjoying them and sometimes selling them but who in this hobby doesn,t sell to fund another acusiton. Just my .02   Jerry

Well first I have a problem that selling a car like that makes for the hobby.  I love AAR cudas...To be honest I would never pay $25,000 for A PROJECT AAR. I think it is stupid.  $195,000 for the AAR in Minneapolis....... SORRY.  Someone may and will pay that.  I do have a couple of ISSUES with Billy boy that I will not discuss on the board.  How he spends his money is honestly his deal, but I DO NOT LIKE what it does for the rest of the hobbie when the rich boys have a PISSING contest on who can pay $5,000,000 for a car..  I am not whining one bit,  If I wanted to I am sure I could afford a CUDA, just think it is stupid to pay $40-50,000 for a no nothing hard top........


Bones68charger

If he made his money he can spend it the way he wants it. I do not believe in wealth distribution. I am a teacher and a young one at that so I am not rich at all, but I can tell you something a welfare state will never work. If you have a good idea that will make you millions then more power to you. Now if he bought all this cars to get crushed or something to that extent, then yes I would be pissed.
