Market commentary

This car sold for $334,000 at Christies auction in Greenwich, Connecticut a year ago. The most recent owner appears to have given it some attention, but nowhere near enough to justify the jump in its price, even taking into account the Gullwings skyrocketing popularity. This is an expensive car.
