That thunderbolt has been on ebay at least once before, by the same seller.  What do you think happened - deadbeat bidder @ $250k?

It's a pretty cool car, being that it is a 1 off, but I agree with Baxo.  If I had 500 thou to blow on cars, I'd rather buy like 3 or 4 less rare ones, and sink some money into the bird.  To eash thier own though.

Hey, I saw that M/T Thunderbolt in one of those national car trader things back when I was in high school (bout '97-98 or so) for $250,000...that thing's been all over the place since then!

Theres no way you could get $250,000 worth of enjoyment out of that thing. You can't drive it on the street and if you live some place like me your 2 hours away from a drag strip.

F**K it buy a gremlin and put a 401 in it. Then use the rest of the money to hustle people.

I highly doubt this thing will ever be worth as much as that T-Bolt though.
