Whoa! $605,000
anybody see who bought it? TV went to commercial when this and the 65 went on the block
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,

I think the $1,000,000 price expectation came from when the previous owner had it on their website for that price.
I agree $605,000 is strong money for such an important car. Many folks do not like the vinyl roof and think it is ugly; but then again there is a lot of folks that like it. That is a different topic and probably getting off track.

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 :)
Hey it is the #1 car. How do ya really put a price on it ? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder 8) What did the "R" model go for ?
Neither "R" model sold at Scottsdale

Vern, my notes agree with SBCARGUY. I show this car to have auctioned in 2016 for $456,500 ($415,000 hammer plus fees). But we could be wrong. Can you double check your source on the high 300s hammer price you mentioned. At this point, I suppose it's of no real consequence. But I try to track the prices on carryovers and would like to correct my records if my current info about this car is wrong.
Thanks,
Steve
