Seems like the older dodge cars go for the big bucks.

No way that car is worth that much. 400HP?!? LMAO!

I'd be driving a new Z06 or the upcoming 600HP Viper if I had that much disposable cash.

Not worth the money to us but to a collector....this is the type of car that brings big money 20 years down the road. If I had it I would just tear it apart and make it faster. It wouldn't worth **** after that.

No. It's been brought up several times in the Appearance and Detailing section (and probably will again in the Body and Paint forum), but nobody has the cash to put into R&D, plus there is speculation that Berger/GMMG would sue anyone who tried.

A one-off, made by some guy in his garage is one thing. If some company came along and started selling them, it might be another matter. It makes what was unique much more common, thereby lowering its value.

We live in a country where people would sooner sue than take responsibility for their own actions, so I tend not to trust lawyers in general.
