Ok...great car, but they are nuts.
What makes them think it is worth 5.5 mil?
That would tie the record for the most expensive American car ever sold.
HowStuffWorks "What's the most expensive American car ever sold?"
A 1966 Shelby Cobra 427, just 1 of 2 ever made.
They say it themselves, over 9 million made, nothing rare about that.
The very 1st production Thunderbird, verified by Ford, sold for just $660,000

Even if they were selling the 1st 25 Mustangs ever made, all of them together would not be worth that much.

My ex-girlfriend Lea has a bass (Ernie Ball Stingray 5) she got used for $1200. After calling the factory for info about value and when it was built Ernie himself got on the phone and told her that he would give $15,000 for it as it was the first one of that model ever made and he wanted it for his own collection. that is only 10 times what any other one would sell for and that is from the person that wanted that bass more than anything

thinking about the values I think that is completely crazy asking that much for a run of the mill car.

If I had that much money to spend on cars I'd get a 1957 Mercedes 300SL, 1959 Cadillac, a Delorean and many other fine classic and/or collectible cars...

but not that one
