[Eurovettes]

What an incredible moment! With the help of General Motors CEO Mary Barra, the Barrett-Jackson hammer dropped in Scotsdale AZ on a $3 MILLION bid for the VIN 001 2020 Corvette Stingray! The entire amount will help benefit the Detroit Children's Fund.

Rick Hendrick of NASCAR fame lifted his finger and spent $3million
I watched it live for here in California

Now let the production begin - ---- at last - the more lowly $60,000 corvette will no doubt sell for more than sticker price in the scramble to own one

Taking orders now - if I can find one for sale

Interesting article here on the relationship between GM, the dealers and the likelihood of finding a new C8 at $60k

Nice one Keith (I didn't know about it)!

See that Rick Hendrick also bought the first/VIN 001 C7 (for a mere $1.1 million)

I was there and it was an awesome moment, all 42000 c8,s production run for this year have been sold so unlikely you will get one for anywhere near 60k
