not sure how old this is..

Wow. $350K. Way too much, just because it belonged to Elvis. It does look nice though.

agreed, there are plenty of people around with his face tattoed on their a$$. I have no doubt that 350 grand is reasonable for someone with the cash and obsession.

For example, a russian bought hitlers MB limo for multiple millions of dollars.

Elvis was and is an extremely popular celebrity, I would be surprised if it did not go for way more in the end.

If a russian is willing to shell out that much for the personal car of a dictator who is responsible for the death of millions of his countrymen, stands to reason elvis's car would go for a lot of money as someone who was and is actually loved to this day.

Yep, not an Elvis Diehard!!!

I would not shell out extra bucks just because someone famous owned something that is now up for sale. That follows the "more dollars than sense" saying IMHO.

That car sold on ebay a year or two ago for significantly less.

just for everyone's knowledge, elvis is still alive. many people think he's dead. that's a lie and a myth.
