1980 Pontiac Trans Am Bandit special edition only 500 miles on the clock :

This one was seriously stupid money for a "tribute" car, i.e. one made to look like the original but not an original (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/rtfm.gif)

1970 Plymouth Superbird "tribute" went for $501,000 (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/shame.gif) (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/shame.gif) (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/shame.gif)

Oh, and a custom dash-mounted plaque with the buyer's name engraved on it for all to see.But it went for $275,000 [img]http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/crazy.gif)

One but didn't sell was a Ford (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/tongue.gif)

The 1st 2010 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, it was withdrawn at short notice becuase Carroll Shelby had caught a cold in the last few days and was unable to make it to Scottsdale.
