Dick Harrell Camaro on eBay
 
http://www.ebay.com/itm/272505620063

$150k for a Dick Harrell Camaro: Would you, if you could?

V 01-05-2017 11:02 AM

Well that's not just a Berger camaro. Its a dick Harrell edition. Wide body and all.

Anti_Rice_Guy 01-05-2017 11:06 AM

If I had the means, yes. Best looking 4th gen Camaro around, with everything perfect.

Never seen silver, though.

LS1ow 01-05-2017 12:08 PM

Looks super good but no thanks !

sweetbmxrider 01-05-2017 12:24 PM

Love the seats. I would think 50-60k is more appropriate. What were they new?

:stupid:



Assuming I had the means for only one $150k-ish car, it wouldn't be a 700 mile car. I'd need a fully restored Jaguar roadster (think XK140 and the like), a jaw-dropping Pro-Touring Gen1 FBody, or a FGT if I could find the right Repo Man :lol:

Blackbirdws6 01-05-2017 01:04 PM

In 20-25 more years, $150k may be reasonable. All us "kids" who owned these cars in our earlier years will have better means to afford such frivolous purchases.

ar0ck 01-05-2017 01:07 PM

Give me 150k to dump into my **** box.

The silver strikes a tone with me, but I agree with Brian. $150k in 2017 is too soon, junior.

Twenty years down the road and I'm ballin out of control, absolutely.

Remind me to get in your good graces, just in case.

Anti_Rice_Guy 01-05-2017 02:26 PM

I guess I should clarify: If I was pondering dropping $150k on this, I'd have some pretty serious other toys :nod:

BonzoHansen 01-05-2017 02:31 PM

that is a collector car and needs to be looked at that way. If your answer is i can build better for less, etc., your out of the conversation. If i could afford it I'd still be out for that reason lol.

I dont know what those have been trading at recently to judge value. I suspct low five digits at best but i could be way off.

LS1ow 01-05-2017 05:08 PM

Just to be clear, I'm only against it because I would ruin it. And that car deserves to be kept perfect.


On a side note, I'm pretty sure Dale Jr sold a Dick Harrel 4th gen a few months ago from his own collection

edpontiac91 01-05-2017 07:12 PM

Of course, it's an Ultra Rare 4th Gen, but the Silver paint seems too soft for this Bird. Maybe a Bright Red or Metallic Orange to make it pop. The same goes for the wheels, they look bland with those Dark Gray spokes. Too bad you could not enjoy this monster because OF the low mileage.

The price is Waaaay to much RIGHT NOW. Just like 60's Muscle Cars were within every ones reach at one time, but 98.5% of us now can only look and drool :drool: at what they are bringing now. I had (NEW) a 1966 427 425 hp Corvette, a 1965 GTO, a 1967 GTO H.O., a 1970 Monte Carlo SS and more, but sold them all for a little more than what they listed for. Right now any one of them could pay off my house, but HEY, who knew.

ThoR294 01-05-2017 07:37 PM

its rare but its not 150k rare damn lol

BonzoHansen 01-05-2017 07:40 PM

I think Ron has one. He might be tuned in better to the market value of these things.

Also, its that time of the year. Could be a teaser with an exorbitant reserve to build interest before it hits a real auction.

Ignoring the model, do buyers of such a car really think this way? I was under the impression that anyone willing to drop 6-figures on "a piece of 4th Gen history" that has all of the right decals, wasn't going to be sitting there critiquing the manufacturer for their paint color choice... :shrug: I'm too poor to own a $150,000 garage ornament, so maybe someone could edumacate me

Blackbirdws6 01-05-2017 09:20 PM

If you have the means, you get to be picky and some colors can simply bring more money.

That would make sense

See, this is interesting to me. What you're saying makes sense, and that's how I, being JoeSchmo, approach buying a "regular" car. But I figured the "Collectors Cars" of most value were the ones that were most rare...


Seems that, of the 30 total Dick Harrell Camaros produced, the registry is most saturated with either red or orange cars (13 out of 30). Meanwhile, there were only 3 silver ones, & this particular one was the only Camaro of the 30 to get the Houndstooth interior.

:shrug: I'll never understand

sweetbmxrider 01-06-2017 10:00 AM

Next to you, collectors are the most annoying people in the world.

Rare <> valuable. It really depends. But its called resale red for a reason.

LTb1ow 01-06-2017 08:53 PM

ThoR294 01-07-2017 07:15 AM
