I often wonder who buys this old auto junk, why and what for, is it for investment? They have obviously got more dosh than me to waste. So what happens if the bottom falls out of the market as it did in the 1990's and 2008 ?

Paris collectible car auctions: Barnfind Ferrari 250 GT California Spider sells for US$18.45 million

 

Soooo crazy.

 

I'm not calling this Gauguin a piece of junk but this price is even more absurd.

Gauguin Painting Sells for Record Sum of Almost $300 Million - WSJ

The artist died of a morphine overdose, penniless and riddled with syphilis.

$300,000,000 for a painting. I appreciate beauty as much as the next man but that's absurd. Just think, for a minute, about what good could be done with $300,000,000.

 

Cyclone could become third million dollar motorcycle
