Oh cool!!! Maybe I misunderstood the rules. I was thinking it had to be the "Closest WITHOUT going over". But, that's only if there is a "Tie"??

Anyway..thanks! Let me take a look at BAT now.

I know it's 6-7 days out, but I'm liking this 997.1 GT3RS option for the next guess.

I assume I get to guess again also?? If so, Mark me down for $157,500.00 ( I have no reference here, just guessing )

Wow. I was WAY off on that GTS. That’s what happens when two bidders duel it out. Exciting to watch!

No - closest w/o going over is the Price is Right - This guessing game is closest to whether over or under like "closest to the pin" in golf

LOL Yeah, I kinda went "old school" in my way of thinking.

Anyway. Fun game.


BTW....QUESTION... Can we make 2nd, 3rd, etc. Guesses, OR Change our guesses as the days / hours get closer??? I don't think that was addressed in the rules either. Was it?

I ask because I may do some research and realize I should have done some prior to my guess on this GT3RS...lol

$145,998 on the GT3RS. Details on the car look extremely solid. Well optioned, no stories, no overrevs, desirable collectable color.
