SFM5R213 has been sold.

Thanks for all the interest 

5r213 has found its new home...

Thanks for the positive comments and inquiries along the way 

I agree with BigFoot...

Just enjoy it

I have no skin in the game in regards to the car sold at "Mecum" but... I think many people throw around the term "Rebody" very loosely and sometimes with or without "TRUE" knowledge of such.

@ sfm5s081

No offense... But no... that won't buy it 

And of course... I AM the owner

Thanks

Josh

5R213 is for sale at Barrett-Jackson's Showroom.

It has not been for sale at any Barrett-Jackson Auction before

It makes the right sound... Spectacular to look at it...

But to drive for the weekend?

From True personal experience Unless you want to RACE it for the weekend... Not exactly fun 

Appreciate all the comments.

Thanks for all the positive comments

I don't believe the new owner is a member of the forum...

RM car bid $850k (5R213)
Barrett-Jackson Car bid $775k (5R538)

Took at least one million to own either one of them....

Neither "R" model sold at Scottsdale

I think the expectations were the car was going to bring more than $1m! Then again, the R model should have brought a lot more

I think a 550 hammer and 605 all in price represents a strong and appropriate price for a very important car. Dont know why anyone would have expected a street spec car to bring over $1m personally.

The hammer also represents a strong profit on the car from its sale a year or so ago at Worldwide where it brought in the high 300s hammer price.

Kind regards,
Vern

The car was sold at Worldwide for $456,500 ($415,000 hammer) with the buyers premium... It is a very special car but, didn't bring seller much profit after the smoke clears
