When the auction has been going for a while online it is a bit of an anti climax watching it live on youtube and no more bids.
Stupid price for the ute, no race pedigree, nothing to make it famous, not unique after all there are 3 others.

What the final VIN has going against it is it was obviously allocated to a dealer as stock or an order, so naturally it went ahead in the assembly stage and the museum car was surplus held back for the media photoshoot. Both have significance but only one holds the highest ever VIN for a VF Commodore, that cant be disputed. |

Guy who switched on to the fact that the car with the final vin number was in a dealership unsold, made a killing.
But with Holden saying it's not the last car, the guy who bought it is a moron. If Holden say the last car off the line is the last car, no amount of technicalities is ever going to change that. Buyer got screwed. |

Even if the actual final car was in the same auction, i would still rather the final VIN car. But for more than a price of a house they can keep them both!

Wasn't there much the same dispute with the prototypes, chassis numbers and production completion of the first 48/215 Holdens?
