[urq] The price of greatness

What's with all the high priced Urs available recently?  Do people
really pay the 11 grand some people are asking?  I mean, I see the guy
in california asking 7 for his barely complete black car and there was
recently a guy in my area selling a gold one with peeling paint and a
fire under the hood for the same price!  What are these people
thinking?  Do people actually pay that much?  I feel that I got a fair
deal on mine, but I don't think it was cheap nor overpriced.  If I get
everything straightened out on my car, can I double the price?  I
understand there's the whole desire and rarity factor, but it seems
like people are asking nearly twice the price because they're somewhat
rare.  Though I've never seen another on the road, I've seen several
for sale.  Just takes a little patience.

Also, what's the deal with Fuchs wheels?  I know 8" Ronals have some
desireability, but are these as collectable?  I saw a set on ebay go
for $75, guess I should have picked them up!
