Yeah, it beat the snot out of what the 1st Z28 went for. Made me happy.

i'm sure LOWDOWN/SEVENOHJOE over on Camaro5 is absolutely livid.

It's not really 1 million dollars like you and I would spend... Remember this is a "Charitable Donation", so much of the 1 million dollars can be deducted from taxes. That's why only a few people with enough deductions actually bid....

At first I was shocked someone would pay $1M for this car but seeing that the proceeds benefit charity it looks like a win-win for everyone!

Is that a red GT350R prototype they showed in that video from the first post?

I took some screen grabs.

It looks like the same camo as that "second" car at the Ring that everyone was wondering about....from this one.. http://www.mustang6g.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8819

Tax write off for the 1%. This auction stuff needs to end. Why not raffle it off to an average joe enthusiast instead of some fat cats who will store it in a garage forever.

Raffle - great idea!

Raffle - great idea!

Like they did with the convertible 50th anniv?

Wonder how much the charity got from that...I mean tickets were like $10 or $20 a piece weren't they?

Interesting that it doesn't have the dash gauges. I figured those would be standard on the GT350s

The auction method does a lot more good for the charity. Stop being so greedy.

You could easily mount 4 small gauges in that plate. Two on either side of the "R." It would look nice and be viewed very easily.

Wealth envy much?

Yup

I don't care if the wealthy can do this because that is their money, they earned it.

Besides, I'm wealthy compared to some. Everyone is "wealthy" compared to someone.
