Iacocca Mustang anyone??

I saw the one they ran on BJ this year, and I really like the design. I don't know what it looks like in the metal, or how big it is in real life, but it does look very cool in pics/tv.

"cool 66k"? They got ripped off or the shopper owner is asking too much at $175k.

 

I was at an Italian Cars track day at Daytona back in 2009 taking pictures around NASCAR turns 1 and 2 and one of those came in from the entrance tunnel and drove past me. I looked at it and thought it was a regular Mustang and then noticed the Iacocca badge on the rear. Still didn't think it was special enough to take a pic.

A few months later I saw on Barrett-Jackson #1 sell for about $300,000. The bidder was a woman and a woman was driving the one I saw at Daytona so I'm guessing it was the same car. ( B-J was a rerun )

That day at the track I was looking at an Enzo, Veyron and lots of exotics and I've always regretted not taking at least one shot of the Mustang as it drove by me that day

 

I haven't seen the Iacocca Mustang, I didn't realize it cost so much. I didn't care for the fastback design.

I did a little reading, is it pricey because it's limited edition?

I've seen two of them, one was the BJ Auction one, 66k is not how much that car is worth, horrible deal.

 

Head over to Galpin Ford in SoCal., they got a long row of them sitting in the warehouse; perhaps they are motivated to sell?

 

The other I saw was a maroon one at the GAS (Galpin Auto Sports) tent at Barrett Jackson.

And a correction, the silver one I saw was not BJ, it was RM Auctions.
