Default Highest amount EVER paid for a car in USA

http://www.mecum.com/news/news_detail.cfm?NEWS_ID=2102

Something strange though...

Shelby Daytona coupe.... designer is Peter Brock....

Wasn't the car that (our) brocky crashed fatally a Shelby Daytona Coupe??

That is weird... strange co-incidence...

And I thought that the US version was usually called "Pete". He was a hero of mine for a long time.
