Own Neil Armstrongs Corvette

Anybody have any thought's on cars owned by famous people. Do they have anymore value. Should being owned by a famous person drive the price up an astronomical

amount. What are your thoughts?

The value really depends upon the car and who the celebrity is or was. I think the celebrity factor deminishes after time.

Hey I think I've got to bid on that. eBay listings George Washington's presidential Ford Model T. Got to be the first to bid. Lol.

Never been a huge fan of Corvettes and seems a bit sketchy to me.

Hello `Lou,
Interesting thread question.
I would be more concerned about how the car I am interested in was maintained & driven, and not the status of the owner...Celeb or not...

When I have a car....I want it to be mine
