I seem to remember seeing a comment in a magazine somewhere that it would be
possible to buy all of the Sunbeam Tigers that are still in existence for
something like $10 million. That is not as out-of-sight as it would appear as
there have been a number of cars sold for over $1 million each. So, for the
price of 10 exotica, you could corner the market on Tigers.
I wonder what one of those $300,000 cars is worth used???? Remember an Alpine
sold for $2,500 NEW! Now one in "like new" condition is triple that or more...
is that $300,000 car going to be worth $900,000?

You're not nuts, you're "right on". People ask me and Jane what kind of car
will we buy if we really make it big and the answer is always the same: We'll
make the "baddest", fastest Sunbeam there is! I know that's not good English
grammer, but that's the truth!! We always get similar comments all the time
about the trunk size and room and comfort inside the car, what a good looking
car it is, and occassionaly, when someone doesn't know what it is, a question
about where the nearest dealer is so they can buy a new one.
