Equipment
An older US restoration to showroom condition with excellent paint, interior and chrome and showing only the most benign indications of age. Excellent straight bodywork.
Market commentary
An astounding result even for such an attractively presented Spyder America. Bonhams got +129,000 for a RHD example in good driving condition here in 2002 and obviously expected a bit more for this example; what they got for it is 59% more which defies logic but sometimes happens at the auction. The new owner better get plenty of psychic income from its ownership and use because the price paid is unlikely to be approached, much less exceeded, for a long, long time.
