Default Rare C5s The Pace Car Gets sold for $90000

Saturday John Moss GMs Performance King sold a 98 indy pace car for a record $90000 plus the buyer paid 8% fee total price 97200. What is your take? Is it rare or collectible or valuable or perhaps all three?

Please give me your opinion on this topic.

Thanks,
Kristen at Kerbeck

I dont think it is rare or valuable enough to justify that kind of price. Unreal.

Its rare.. alot of guys wont ever say that, they may think it but thats the guys trying to get or wait out for the 2004 Corvettes to drop to 30 grand..

the 98 was worth it.

None of the above. Can't see it being worth much more than a regular 98 convertible but what do I know. Maybe if it was actually one of the pace cars used on the track during the race? :jester

Is it RARE, well production numbers don't lie... Collectable? That's subjective. Valuable? Only to the one that paid $97K for it. :lol: But then, money is probably not a concern for someone that spends that carelessly.

[QUOTE Maybe if it was actually one of the pace cars used on the track during the race? :jester [/QUOTE]

I was at the Barrett-Jackson auction where this car was sold. http://www.barrett-jackson.com/aucti....asp?id=177343 One of 3 pace cars built.
If you think that's a lot of $$$$.... see this '86 pace car that sold
for $86,400 http://www.barrett-jackson.com/aucti....asp?id=177349

How about this '67 Shelby for $189,000: http://www.barrett-jackson.com/aucti....asp?id=177029

Cars are worth what some one will pay for them. People get at these auctions and get caught up in the frenzy, people with a lot of money dont care what it cost, they just want it.
