Might work better if they started with an Allanté

Usually Corvettes are at the wrong end of these mash-ups!

As I was saying... Here's a Volvette!

Nice, the result is surprisingly good!

Even Cadillac played that game, here is the XLR-V

It 's at 50,000 now.
I was expecting this one hit closer to $100K. The impact of the virus?

Hmmm...well...$70K USD is $90K CAD. Great buy.

Yup the real buyers come by near the end.

I like that! I had a chance to buy a red one a few years back that was parked due to a leaky head gasket, it was rotted beyond repair (seller said it was near mint). A rare bird indeed, it'll be interesting to see where the bidding ends up.

Maybe. Did it not have collision damage though ?

5 hours to go it could ramp up.

Indeed, sold for 70k$ !

Wow! That's a little under 10K Canadian. I figured it would get 6k max.

Mopar 12, They only made 500 of them.
Chrysler 300 V8 with stiff suspension and many mopar bits.

That 3.91 rear end would be great with the current 8-speed auto.

Arthur Dent, you have 1hr20mins left as of this posting!

Granted, the exchange rate is not helping here...now standing at 1,650 USD.

I saw that. The seller is losing his shirt if he imported from Japan. The minimum price to import anything is around $4k. Plus the Japanese tend to price their remaining classics high. I'd guess at was $10k to bring it in from auction or similar.

That is a still a good price but I think I am sadly out as its probably not the best time to add another addition.

Lousy time to sell with the borders shut and AB economy hit extra hard.

No other bids with 30 mins to go... Hoping the seller gets a last minute bidding war!

No Levinson sound or Navi but the guy sounds like a knowledgeable owner and the car has regular, no-air suspension which is a plus in an older vehicle.
