Are you looking for a piece of pre-presidential history? Do you have $1 million sitting around? Well, if you do, someone's got a deal for you.
A 2005 Chrysler 300C that was once leased by U.S. President Barack Obama when he was a U.S. Senator is up for sale on eBay.com. The opening bid is $1 million, and no less, apparently.
CNN reports that Chicago-area resident Lisa Czibor, who describes herself as a "life-long Ronald Reagan old-school conservative" is selling the car. She did not disclose how she managed to acquire the car that currently has just 20,800 miles (around 34,000 kilometres) on it.
Despite her best efforts, experts don't believe Ms. Czibor will get any near the $1 million she seeks at auction. For example, the hearse that John F. Kennedy following his 1963 assassination recently sold for $160,000. And the Kelly Blue Book value for a comparable car is only around $15,000.
Craig Jackson, president of Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction Company in Scottsdale, Arizona told CNN: "Maybe this car would be worth $50,000 to $100,000."
This kind of shows you how lame Mr. Obama's tastes in cars is...
