Re: 92 Firehawk

There was one on Ebay for 70 or 80k.

Need to take your 89 to the T/A Nats in Dayton Ohio next year.

Thanks TTop,

I know it'll take good money but not $80k.

Also thanks for the invite. Hopefully I'll get it done this winter. The LS1 stroker and 6 speed are getting rebuild and installed, hopefully sooner than later

Milt sold his convertible? Wow, I didn't know that.

Real interesting story on how that car got built in the first place!

Re: 92 Firehawk

Same car that was listed on EBAY. Beautiful collector car but I think the value is not quite there yet. I would definitely say in the 50-60 range but that is even pushing it.
I could be wrong but I think it was the same one on EBAY recently.

Ummm, WHAT?! Several years ago it went to a collector in Europe for north of $80K! Who the hell bought it for that much? Where is it? Do you have contact info? Do you know the mileage at the time of that sale?

No, he meant hard top as opposed to t-top. Not #27.

Re: 92 Firehawk

It's amazing how these Firehawks are demanding this much money. SLP was right down the highway from me once upon a time, and nobody ever thought they were anything special who lived locally. I wouldn't pay 80k for one of them. I would definitely pay that much for a red or black TTA prototype in terms of a third gen collectible, but not an SLP Firehawk though...

Re: 92 Firehawk

If i had the cash I'd have a 92 in a heartbeat. Prototype cars are cool but they need to be kept even more low miles than a hawk. At that point, either is hard to justify having. Its hard to enjoy a car that just sits.

I agree - I've been watching these for years and want to own one but I'd be driving it, make no doubt about it!

I'm not quite sure where the values on these should be, I saw this one out at the MCACN show a few weeks ago and it's a sweet car. I'm not sure if these will ever get to the level the Berger, Nickey & Yenko cars have today but they were expensive when new and are still valuable today.
