If this sells, its gonna raise the bar a few notches higher:shock: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Buick-Skylark-Holy-Grail-Original-GS-Stage-1-4-Speed-Convertible_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ16124QQihZ010QQitemZ200111182660QQrdZ1 Marco- you better call the insurance co. and up the value on your convertible!
The interior looks kinda ratty for that much coin. Arm rests are all discoloured and the seats look less than mint. Nice car though. Same colours as my '70 GS rag was, but mine was not Stage 1 or 4 speed. Pretty rare car........ Brian
I Think Its Crap That Someone Who Is A Mopar ,pontiac Guy Finds A Car That We All Want And Marks It Up So Only Some Rich Guy That Probably Isnt In To Buicks At All Will Buy It As An Investment And Now The People That Truley Want One For The Driving Pleasure Will Never Be Able To Buy One .they Were Not Made To Sit Around On A Shelf Like A Trophy.that Is What Will Happen To Them If They Cost $225,000.

I 2nd EVERYthing Jason says.....it this thing goes, the bar HAS been raised. "wait until next year" plays BIG in this auction...
I second the comments above about the interior looking pretty weak. For that kind of money he could have gone to Legendary and spent $2K on new panels and seat covers and such.
I think it's joke, investor's and speculator's ruining everything. I would rather spend $50,000 and buy this:3gears:
It is a double edged sword. We know our Buicks are as good as or better than the rest. Buick did "build a better car", especially the performance versions. With the prices what they are on a LS6 4-speed vert, this guy is probably too low.
Up to 110K. Just for the sake of this conversation, lets assume this car is sold for 225k. How much of that 225k is because its a convertible as opposed to a hardtop? How much did the convertible add to the price?
You are absolutely right man! How dare you ask a price for this car that is beyond reality....it's just wrong. The Buick fanatics should be able to buy a car like this. And for that matter, i have seen nicer Buicks like this for less money.
Come on guys , I will never own one either but if a hemi Cuda is 5 mil then well it might be worth it . The best I would do is a clone that way I could drive the snot out of it . I just wish I could get Jim Lore to adopt me
I have sort of an 'equality pact' with my wife, so since I can't buy two at the same time I can't just buy the one of them for myself. I don't think the fact that it's a convertible per se makes it more desireable, but the fact that it's very rare and perhaps the only one left in blue makes it pricey. If hardtops were rarer, then those would be more pricey than ragtops.
