[V8] A new price record for a stock '90?

[Enzeder]

I'm not saying it's not a nice car - it may very well be.  I'd be 
worried about anything rubber or plastic.  The listing doesn't mention the TB.

If it is Roger's new car, I hope he had the opportunity to look it 
over before bidding, and I hope it is as nice as it looks.  I don't 
think I'd bid that high sight unseen for a car that old.

One serious plus is that the seller has excellent feedback for an auto dealer.
