>Corvettes going for less than $100k
>one selling for less than $50k

holy shit

It's like the room is full of Teabaggers who refuse to pay the Boomer Tax.

>>16977271
most Corvettes arent worth that much

usually only C2 Corvettes or C3s with 427s go for much

>>16977330
Yeah, but one of them was a split rear windo '63.

>Hemi Cuda

here comes the money

>>16977424
I missed it, what was the selling price?

>>16977480
$180,000

>>16977377
the 63 isnt the desireable year

and if it doesnt have numbers matching everything and low miles and factory air then no one wants it

2013 cts-v coupe

>>16977536
8k miles
no reserve
sold: 47,500

>>16977503
It was a numbers matching 4 speed with aftermarket air
>63 isn't the desirable year
Nigger what? It's THE desirable year

>>16977607
maybe to you, but you dont have any money and you arnt there buying it so its not desirable

>>16977649
I guess a zl1 would be higher, but the odds that you see one at auction are next to zero.

That being said I don't acknowledge people who can't punctuate or spell, or even use proper sentence structure.

>>16977503
>>16977649
Nigga what? The split rear window coupe is THE desirable coupe. They always command higher prices than other C3 coupes.

>>16977666
good for you
watch the auctions im sure there was a zl1 up at some point this weekend

>>16977675
>THEY ALWAYS COMMAND HIGHER PRICES
no they dont, the real world is not like what goes on in your head

>>16977680
Considering the market isn't up right now, and only ~95 motors where produced, with two being production cars, I doubt it.

OH SHIT IT'S ADORABLE

It's consistently valued higher than equally equipped coupes from the other years of the C3 generation.

you are actively watching market trends when you watch these auctions

they are not currently desirable

These boomers have/want too much money

nothings hitting reserve but people are still bidding higher than they really should

I like to play a game where I close my eyes and guess what the price of the car is based on the auctioneer's noise

Holy shit. What is the auctioneer doing

>>16978051
Welcome to
>"I know what I got"

Convincing the seller to take the reserve off so they can actually sell the car.

Oh hey, Boomers knowing what an import is worth.

>>16978202
I'm amazed at how those have appreciated

https://www.mecum.com/auctions/houston-2017/lots/04/08/page/4/

>>16978202
these are actually quite significant

mostly because of the weird as fuck doors

>>16977086
how do these auctions even work?

are they all assumed as stock or something? They're all just bidding based on how it looks on the outside and what year/model it is?

auctioneer is blatantly saying the bid is too low for a old car while the audience is just dead silent, is that even normal

>>16977086
>RESERVE IS - ..
>IT'S A NO RESERVE CAR. IT'S NEVER HAD A RESERVE
are the bidders just clueless or what the fuck is even going on

>>16978540
The car is available for viewing 1-5 days before the auction. If you want to know more you contact the seller prior to the auction for test drives, inspections, authentication, appraisals etc.

>these cars with triple digit miles

So what, you can essentially buy a 15 year old car new? Or do these people selling them think you'll not drive them at all like they did?

>>16978615
A lot of the time it's 3 digit miles since restoration which could mean literally anything.

>>16978623
They said the 2002 camaro and firebird were original miles.

>>16978540
>the audience is just dead silent
The place is LOUD. Seriously, it's headache inducing so there's no extraneous conversation going on. Authorized bidders are in a relatively small area just in front of the stage with some agents on the phone with phone bidders (shills really) at tables behind. The rest to the sides and further in the back are just observers.

>>16978450
You're thinking of the z1

fucking way too much for a mustang, idgaf if its a gt350

>80k for a 55 bel air
fucking boomers, i tell you hwat

>auctioneeer insulting audience

If the car isn't worth that much people won't pay it.

Oh BABY

that auctioneer was spazzing out over that merc
>oh go ahead, wait for that ferrari, you might not get that either and you go home with nothing
>no dont ask him, he's a naysayer
>this ought to be in australia
the fuck is his problem, he waited so long for someone to bid 280, just close it at fucking 275 already ffs

fuck off with this charity bullshit, keep selling cars you dicks
>10k for the jersey
no

>85k for a 69 Camaro
What in the fuck are these boomers thinking

>>16977781
nigger you are retarded. i wouldnt expect any different from a namefag

>salmon ranchero

I like it.

I missed most of yesterday's thread. Did anything noteworthy come through?

>>16978954
$900 automatic integra, not even in good shape and mildly riced

It's amazing to see cars sell for double of what most houses cost.

>>16979040
It's amazing to see no interest in this Testarossa.

>>16979045
Right?! I was thinking the same thing.

>>16979045
You need to look at market trends. Classic cars are down from a few years ago, and there's still a lot of testarossas out there.

I'm more surprised that the Daytona didn't sell. Late 60s/early 70s are hot right now.

Another thing is I bet people were buying classics because they thought Obama was going to ban fun cars, same with guns. Turns out more guns and classics where traded then ever when he was in office and they feel safe knowing that Trump is in office.
