I think that's what he was getting at. Sadly, 100k at these events now is basically chump change

I watched part of a Mecum auction the other day. For the first time in a while there were actually some "deals", or final hammers that at least compare to private sales. Of course the oddball, rarer, or historical stuff will still command top prices, not to mention the charity vehicles....which shouldn't be mentioned at all.

I really wanted to take the $35k cash we paid for my son’s car and go to the one in the desert…let him pick out something cool. But I don’t know enough about cars to steer him into something reliable, so we didn’t. Probably would have been a 240/280Z or some other small sports car. Probably wouldn’t have liked it as much as the car he got though. If he was interested in trucks or a 4wd I think we could have found something much cooler than new.

Yeah. $200k is up there, $250k is what I’d consider “big money”. Problem is the market is seemingly soft for everything except Porsche right now. The Ford GT’s should be big sellers, they’re selling on BaT for $350+. Unless I overlooked a car, I can’t see much else going that high.
