Agree - what people will pay and what it costs to make it are definitely two different things. What I meant by soft was that it sure seemed like some of those cars cost a lot more to build than what they sold for and probably sold for a lot less than what the seller thought they would get. That Mach 1 with the mid engine was definitely a strange one!
