Market commentary
The bidders seemed to have shared some skepticism about this Daytona Spider, accounting for its modest reported high bid. In 2008 Russo and Steele offered this car with a reported high bid of $1.5 million, which begs understanding. The bid here seems like it should have been sufficient for the car to find a new home.
