318 vs. Slant value

I see high end car auctions as to like high end horse sales (auctions). Lots of cars ( horses ) to see at one spot in one day or several days, to choose from. Good for buyers. Competition between bidders. Good for sellers.
People get caught up in the competition of bidding. Too many people do not get to talk directly to the seller (builder) for accurate info. Test, road drives?
Trying out a horse at a sale is not always in the cards. Tranquilized horses. Unsound horses on pain killers. The very high end sales will have owners furnish x rays. Up to seller to have them read by their vets.
Sales. Buyer beware. Car auction,... horse auction.
I have seen many prices in the mags that are not real world.

Reminds me of the Mopar mags in '92 still telling their readers how STRONG the market was and the market had already crashed and they KNEW IT!! So did the big collectors trying to unload before it got worse.
