Oh well.  :P $305,000 for a none concept car is still a great figure.
Plus there are a few 71 HEMIs out there and also clones, I doubt there would be a clone for that GM.  ;D

The building is actually still under construction and scheduled to open in September, or at least that is what the guy said on Sunday's broadcast, he also said something to the effect that the Discovery Channel was financing the project, I wonder if he met the building part or that and the cars he purchased too ? At least there you can still see them, the cars arent locked up in some warehouse somewhere collecting mouse droppings.

I don't see it as beating a 71 hemi cuda convertible.  It's a concept car, not a production vehicle.

That being said.......................... Holy Crap !  3 Mil. for a cutlass ?   :dontknow:
