Nothing against this particular car, but . . .

Yet another example of how the "new" BaT plays with preference to it's preferred sellers, and how these same sellers pat each other on the back pimping each other's auctions. This time it's 1600Veloce selling a car that isn't even in the USA. Or his. These third-party sellers have pretty much taken the neighborhood flavor out of BaT and created the $60,000 2002 and the $60,000 R90S. It is now just another sport for kings that perpetuates the illusion of value-by-auction but in reality tilts the playing field to line the pockets of BaT's new owner, Hearst Media.

So, who here is going place the first bid on the 507?
