It's not just Pantera's all of the auction house estimates seem high IMO, I guess it's a ploy to make bidders think they might be getting a good deal when bidding falls short. I was amazed at some of the estimates attached to modern Porsche's... $500K for a Porsche is 911 variant is crazy IMO!

Wow.  Do they really expect $130,000 to $170,000 for each of these?
