Celica Forums General Discussion General Over a $MILLION$ for this car, Amazing...

It's unbelievable what this car is going for and to think people were bidding over a 1,400,000 for a car. Mindblowing but rare, a collectable for sure. Check it out what do you think?

I'm too lazy to go find specs online for the performance... but I know Enzo's were going for 1 mil+ right after they came out. That thing looks like an indy car

with only 5 ever made that thing should be very collectible... If I was paying that much for a car though, it would have to be perfect - just not feeling the front styling on this one

The auction looks scam to me, at least bidders' history do.
What kind of millionaire (or billionare) who can shell out over $1.3 million bought $6.95 cellphone charger, used PDA, or sell a Blackberry on Ebay?

i guess they didn't sell it when it was on ebay at the beginning of this year

i know someone posted this already - I've seen these exact photos in an ebay auction several months ago...

gotta love that VIN number

yeah...they are used in the touring car championships...and are rare as hell...I'd rather have a zonda type s...and for a whole lot less money

For that much cash, I'd rather buy a Skyline... And a house!

too much...

Something only a collector would appreciate and want to spend money on. But still fun to look at.

i wish my garage looked like that with all those cars in it

Yeah i like the way one pic just has it siting in a warehouse surrounded by ferraris.

@ 4.0% interest the monthly pmt came to 23206.48

Weak Sauce

Yeah, wouldn't drive it. Just for collectors, only! But its made by Mercedes "race division."

rediculous

i would love to have that car

So guys, it's says it has a celebrity owner. Any ideas who this might be? Makes me think of Jay Leno or Seinfeld someone like that. What's your guess?

Oh and if you bought the car would you drive it? Would you trade your dream Celi for it even if you couldn't sell it??

an earlier version of this car was in need for speed 2. back in the old days. it kept up with the mclaren F1.

that was car was the most expensive car in the world in like 1999 or 2000 i think

im gonna bid on it..haha.
i think that car raced a jet and won...im not sure if it was this car tho...

I always thought those races are dumb, a jet isn't made for accelerating, they don't get moving fast. But I think the jet might win if we compare top speeds.

i'll take four of them.

With that You could buy a house with a garage for you skiline ,350z, M3, Ultimate Celica, and yours and your wifes BMW 760i

I never Knew race cars came with Factory Warrentys

With that kind of money, I'd save a little more and try to find a McLaren F1.

I'd be so afraid of getting in a crash though...people really don't know how to drive.

With only five of them out there you'd have to garage it and you wouldn't really get to enjoy it...unless you want the entire auto enthusiast world to scream bloody murder if you wrecked it...

Yeah just bidded...

Could buy the whole Toyota dealership for that kind of money...lol

Crazy considering you aren't even going to drive it.

not worth it

it's all for status... bragging rights...etc..

but nice to have a unique car

if u're rich and have nothing else to do with ur money...why not

For race versions of ferarri's, lambo's, group b rally cars, and other cool too-expencive-to-buy cars:

that's crazy...soooo much money!

but i don't like the styling of the rear

i think if i was in the market for a 1.5 million dollar car, id go on ebay. Thats my best choice, can you imagine the trust in sending that money through paypal!

Dang meng, I wonder how much just one wheel costs. I bet just the spare tire costs more than my car!

LOL, very funny and probably sad but true.

probably the only car that would make car collectors send hate mail to the owner if crashed

Fucking street legal indy car

they are selling that car 3 blocks away from my house. I like the size of the doors.

For that much, that car better Be able to suck my dick too.

You can always shove it in the gas tank or exhaust pipe

Hey sexy how you doing! ...That's a crazy price!

mini-van riding pimp!

Who is also supposedly married with kids
