Market commentary

This ‘Cuda has been around a while, selling at Worldwide’s Houston auction in 2008 for $134,200 and at Auburn in 2010 for $121,000. Largely overshadowed by its rare and toothsome Hemi counterparts the V-code 440’s 385hp and stump-pulling torque make it a great ride and at a time of $4 high test the fuel economy of the progressive linkage Six Barrel will be appreciated on long drives. Those attributes seem to have pushed the result for this one rather strongly, helped along by the vivid High Impact color (which is “In Violet” on a ‘Cuda but “Plum Crazy” on a Challenger).
