Of course, I highly doubt it will sell for 200k. And Frankly, for 200k, I'd rather buy a McClusky completion CSX.

Worth and price paid are 2 different things.

I could have a 1 dollar bill in my pocket and some idiot could offer me 10 dollars for it. I would sell it to them, but that 1 dollar would still be worth only 1 dollar.

If someone purchased that car for 200k then that is the price they were willing to pay -- not the worth of the car.
