Default "classic car value" or another seller with inflated ego?

Take this cut and paste from the Omaha classifieds:
"1987 928 S4 RARE PORSCHE, V8, Aluminum Body, 57K, Showroom Cond., Classic Car Value, $45,000, Asking, $25,000. 402-379-2217"

I'm coming down with a cold, so I'll leave the witty commentary to you folks. I'll just say that if people like Ed Ruiz asked only 22 grand for their rarer models like his 91 GT...

Someone is smoking some serious crack on that one.....57K is fairly low miles, but $25K....I don't think a 5 speed, sport seats, full leather etc, documented Concours winner will fetch that price! Maybe 15K (pushing it) if its real nice and documented

Guys, it's the only one with an aluminum body! All the other ones were made of galvanized steel (with a few aluminum pieces added), but this one is the real thing!!!

Maybe people gather up all their repair recipts of the past three years and add it on to whatever value NADA or KBB show. I can believe people do that.
