There was also a no-sale (reserve not met) on Ebay recently.

So buy it now is 85k as roller with GMG stickers?. From GMPP without the stickers is 55K? Looks like it got up to 65k.

It doesn't surprise me a whole lot. They've been on TV so people will buy the stuff just to feel special. TV shows have been illustrating that there is a lot of money to be made in the car industry. I've made some money on cars but not the amount these TV stars(fast and loud, chasing classic cars, counting cars, etc) (kinda like storage wars where everything was golden).

You are correct. If Chevy sold them for 55k and Gas Monkey Garage is adding a GMG sticker package then attempting to flip them for 85k... THATS INSANE.

The GM build center COPO Camaros are professionally built, race ready drag cars finished to the highest level of quality to deliver performance and be safe. The dedication of the entire staff up in Michigan putting these cars together is inspiring and these guys sincerely are looking for owners to have success in racing these awesome cars. I have experienced great support long after my delivery when I had questions or needed assistance to correct issues or get faster. From what I can see based on their TV show, the GMG cars will not be anywhere close to what a real COPO is. And let's be clear........these are NOT COPO Camaros.

I know we live in a free country and can ask whatever we want for whatever we want to sell, but, the ***** Monkey guys are selling their competition roller Camaros for $40K less than the dreamers at Sam Pierce Chevy ($125K!!!):

How can Gas Monkey say they bought / built up 14 of the 20 Competition Rollers? Thought they only bought six? Looks like a bit of "creative" advertising by saying "SOLD" for all the ones they had nothing to do with.

Those guys are too much. I'd be surprised if they sell any of them.

Heres a Javelin they are trying to sell on Ebay. Another bit of a stretch to say the least.

That $100K Javelin is the biggest joke I've ever seen! They have a "NASCAR" plate (is it real?), a VIN # and a tag on an intake. After that, they've got a real POS Javelin with no real documentation. Only hype. Good luck with that sale!
