WOW!! It'm not exactly into classics that much but that car is still amazing. I like the "Bonneville" as part of its name too.

Can you imagine trying to adjust 4 carbs at once that are linked together?! So much for a PCM telling you which bank is lean/rich

I saw that when it went on the Block live! that was so awesome... i was like i wonder if this will give the Bonneville Name more Rep and make 'em worth more...which would have + and - effects...

I didn't see that one, but I was watching last year when they sold the gold one. I believe it went for 3 million too, but it might've been almost 4. It would've been cool to own. I remember them saying when the Vette came out in '53, Earl liked it so much he wanted to make an oldsmobile version. I know at least the gold one had the olds nameplate. Why doesn't buick make a luxury Vette now-a-days?! It'd be like an XLR except not overrated.
