Re: [Chrysler300] 300-G at B-J.

I'm with you Pete, it's a positive thing for letter car owners. There is a greater awareness.

Heck I would have sold my G to the buyer for $100,000.00, saved the buyer some dinner money!

OK Ryan

Are we better off with the G selling at $200,000 or at $45,000?

I would submit that having it sell for more is better than having it sell for less.

IMHO - I think you would be dreaming to think the price of other G's just rose anywhere near 20% based on one car's sale, especially if G owners begin to test the market and flood it with inventory. There just aren't the buyers out there to support the demand at that price point, even as investments. A knee jerk reaction may ensue to some degree but I would be surprised if it could be sustained.

Ryan,

Even if it pushes prices 20% higher it's heading in a positive direction. It's not unlike a comp for real estate, supply vs demand. If the BJ auction begins to set a tone and begin the wave then be ready for the ride. Right after the auction a neighbor (classic car guy) of mine calls me and tells me about the sale then says "your car is really valuable Matt, it's easy to thing it's worth less!" If the car is marketed right, at the right venue you might hit it right.

Be well

I don't know about the rest of you but a single sale a BJ wouldn't sway me to pay more or less today than I would have yesterday. All it takes is for a couple of guys with more money (or credit) than good sense to get into a pissing contest over the same car and the price moves well beyond what the real market will bare. Time will tell if overall values of all G's will actually be impacted beyond next week. I wouldn't get too excited just yet or someone will be posting there dismay at the 'poor' result the next auction brings when a similar car only brings $100k.

Hi Pete,

Stick or no stick that sale just raised the values of all existing G's. It's a good thing.

Be well.

For anyone who missed it a 300-G three speed stick car was sold for $200,000.
As usual the broadcasters had some things wrong but, for the most part they had good things to say about the car.
I wonder how much of that sales price was due to the stick shift.
