I have watched those cars do many laps, but the price seems high even for 2.

Am I wrong?

It's far from a deal and I don't know how many hours are on the motors and trannys BUT considering the spare parts- its not criminal.

Those are not the grand am cars, they are the old world challenge cars currently set up for unlimited class in GTU with NARRA, etc. They have better aero packages and much much more power than the Grand Am car(s) they campaign in GA.

Fantasy-land. Looking for just that one guy....lol. Good luck with that.

What are they worth ? Hard to say. Consider they're not probably GrandAm legal...and not sure if they're WC legal now. If you're going to drop that kind of money, Tony Ave or Derhaag will sell you a GT1 rocket that will scare you to death and be waaay faster than these old axes.

Not so sure that the spares are part of the BIN price

"A complete list of spare parts can be purchased also."

I told my wife that there is two Corvettes for sale with matching paint jobs. His and Her sale. Her eyes lit up. I might have a chance.

not for that price they will be looking at them for a while, sure to some corvette fans it might be worth it, of course we all know our race parts never bring as much as we would like
