This one was seriously stupid money for a "tribute" car, i.e. one made to look like the original but not an original

1970 Plymouth Superbird "tribute" went for $501,000

[img]http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/01/superbirdtributebj09_11.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=150>Or how about a matte gold-colored Hurst 50th Anniversary 2009 Dodge Viper Included in the deal were an adjustable Motion Sport Suspension with Eibach springs, a custom Corsa exhaust system and a set of Hurst black chrome wheels sized 19-inches up front and 20-inches in the rear. 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" alt="" border="0" onload="NcodeImageResizer.createOn(this);" class="bbc_img" />

One but didn't sell was a Ford

The 1st 2010 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, it was withdrawn at short notice becuase Carroll Shelby had caught a cold in the last few days and was unable to make it to Scottsdale.
