For that kind of money, I'd rather invest in real estate w/ ample garage space. And a new Challenger SRT8 Hemi, which would be way more fun to drive, IMO.

And that statement is based on what, exactly?

What it's worth (what anything sold at auction is "worth") is whatever the highest bidder is willing to pay for it. "Worth" is a function of the combination of rarity and demand. If it sells for two million, then to the buyer that's what it's worth.

ANY sales of 1970 Hemi Cuda hardtops in the past 25 years ,,,,,,, NONE have sold for anywhere near the asking price of this car.

This car has been marketed off and on for the better part of the past 10-15 years and it's ALWAYS been priced well WELL over any known sold or asking price of a similar condition car.

The fact this car is the supposedly 1st one made has made no impression it's ever going to be worth such a significant price differential of a similar condition/equipped car.

This car is no secret out of the past . it's sat in a museum in northern Indiana for most of it life. and is well known in the Mopar community. So ' if ' were going to sell for top dollar it would have done so a LOOOOOONG time ago.

IF it goes to a supposed 'no reserve auction' ,,, I'll bet it sells for no way near the so called advertised / marketed price .

Back when a similar condition 1970 Hemi Cuda was easily bringing in the $175-$225K range this car was advertised for $1 mil.,,it didn't sell then either .

the red 1971 is a much better car,better year , better color combination, better condition , better investment, less mileage. and it hasn't sold either. just my opinion only

ps, wanna bet a virtual beer it doesn't sell this time around either ?

:lol:

You may be right that it doesn't sell... but you never know. On any given day anything can happen.

It's amazing what someone puts a hefty price on. I don't think the price fits, but hey just my opinion.

I would rather restore my own.

But first you'd have to have one to restore... ;)
