    Anyone watch this show on A&E right now, it has a dealer from Huntington Beach, CA who came up to Vegas with I like to see a 456 (had the pop-up headlights, I am guessing, didn't get a 100% look at all the details). It was 2001, with a retail price of $175k. The guy has two buyers, with a price of $125k, but hes playing the two guys against each other. Interesting.

    I saw that too tonight. They really did not show a good shot of the car but it was not that sharp looking in my opinion.

    Both those potential buyers were from California, which has no shortage of 456's - wait a month or two, and another one comes along for less money. But both guys wanted that particular car. The dealer probably talked 'em up to $130K, from what I gathered.

    One piece of good news for the winning buyer is that he turned $200 into over $4000 at the roulette wheel in less than half an hour, in an effort to win the right to buy the car.

    I don't get why he had them play roulette. I found it weird that these guys so young, with kinda regular jobs (one was a 23-year old ad exec, and can't remember the other one) had had the money to buy a car (I know its a few generations old behind the 550/575),

    What I find interesting on that show is that nobody loses, I have watched every episode, the only person who has lost didnt bet on a number he thought was coming up. weird.

    The owner of the 456 is a good friend of mine. His Name is Harry. I talked to him today. THE WHOLE THING WAS SET UP!!!!!!!!!!! The hispanic guy is actully a friend of his! The car never even sold. It was all staged! REALITY TV!!!!!!!! I thought he was kinda funny or should I say his segment of the show was the only one worth watching. The show kinda... sucked????? In my opinion. I just didn't understand the meaning of the show??? Was I the only one? What was the point?

    This couple was at a table... The male was totally hosed and was losing what he had won... So when he got up to go somewhere... The female stuffed a whole bunch of chips in her purse so they wouldn't go back broke... That was on the way to losing.
