60K? Not to shabby for a 100K mile '79...

 

Seems hard to believe. $40k auction plus $9k auction fee, yipes.

 

I'd rather have No. 1. Or No. 6.

 

I was thinking the same thing after revisiting your sig link.

 

great, a spammer!

 

But Tom Cruise didn't sit in #1 or #6.

I guess Ernst Fuhrmann, Tony Lapine, and Ferry Porsche will have to do.

 

Not every auction is really an auction, and not everything "sold" at auction is really a sale. There are so many games afoot at many auctions it is difficult to conclude anything with any degree of certainty. For the very vast majority of 928 folks having a car that appeared in a movie, no matter how popular the movie may have been, or how big the star is or was, adds very little if anything to the real value of the car. Marketeers can fool some of the public into paying more for a seat that graced the butt of Tom Cruise, or Charlie Sheen, that IMO is very foolish. Now Denise Richards? That might be a different story!

 

Just more evidence that some people have far too much money and too little common sense. Maybe Tom Cruise bought it That would be funny !

 

He could have it gold plated and then he could donate it to his church?
