Market commentary
This car appeals with its well maintained original appearance, significant option list and fantastic color combination. The automatic doesnt drastically affect the desirability of GT 500KRs as they were built for high speed cruising. This price is spot on correct for an original KR convertible in this condition, though both Gooding and the consignor clearly expected more even though it was a no sale at RMs Ft. Lauderdale auction last year at a paltry bid of $97,500.
