Market commentary
Reported sold at RMs Boca Raton auction last year for $56,710 and with exactly the same mileage showing on the odometer today, the Amphicar market popped like an aneurism a while ago but now has fortutely returned to relative stability without having burst, as this result indicates. These are still $30,000 cars by any ratiol standard actually theyre $8,000 cars and $7,000 boats multiplied by a factor of two for the garage space thats saved by having both in one object but the market is enthusiastically overpaying. After a few more sink the supply might actually shrink to justify prices like this.
