So what... for example with an AC Cobra, I would prefer a replica, because you get modern tech that does not kill you, but that you can actually drive... depends what you want. The price though? Something is only worth what the next guy is willing to pay ;) Btw why is this news?
@@Baerchenization Yrs, but replicas aren’t worth remotely the same as the original . So you can sink more money into trying to replicate an original than it’s worth. Including those Cobra’s
@@jule3480 Are you a multimillionaire who can afford any original? No. Which already explains why there are replicas in the first place. It is not very helpful that an original is the original, but you cannot have it, right?
A well made "replica" is still a hand crafted, one-of-a-kind custom build... depends on the quality, craftsmanship and level of detail as compared to the original. As with anything, it's only worth what someone is willing to pay. There might be a buyer out there, just not THIS time.
Because it is owned by John Cena, the greatest professional WRESTLER the business has ever seen. About to win more world titles than Flair, Hogan, Savage, Warrior, Bret Hitman Hart, Shawn Heart Break Kid Sexy Boy Michaels, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, Hunter Hearst Helmsley, The Undertaker, Kane, Mankind, Randy Orton, Sheamus, Batista, Booker T, Sid Justice, Brock Lesnar, Kurt Angle, Vince McMahon, and the rest of them for that matter,
You build a car like that because you want it, not to make money from it. Tributes, replicas and kit cars will never be worth near the original and certainly not what you spent to build (especially if you're paying someone else to build it for you).
These idiots in the entertainment industry can’t manage money and live beyond their means. It’s a replica car in the first place. You’re not selling that 💩 box.
Spending that much on building a replica is crazy. It was built because the real car is worth a lot more. Replicas are only worth what people are willing to pay when you sell them.
... BINGO... as well as the level of craftsmanship and authenticity to the original, which needs to be appreciated in person. I've seen some REALLY bad and REALLY good Batmobile "replicas". The price will always reflect that...
"Fake" implies a BAD replica... some replicas have incredible craftsmanship, attention to detail and level of authenticity. The price should reflect that... along with "the market".
You build a car and expect someone to pay the same money means you have no idea how car business works. Buy a normal new car from a dealership and try to get the same money for it. It’s not going to happen. John thinks the fact it is his car makes it valuable. Wrong!
It just needs painting like an original which were mostly 2 tone and an original is many millions of dollars and I think there is only 5 or 6 in the world So for a hand built replica it’s pretty good value
This is how the classic car industry works! You typically never see a return of your investment into the project. The only one who makes a profit is the shop that built it.
remember when he gave that cowardly apology to china, lost all respect
He has talked like the Chinese now he acts like the Chinese by selling replicas
Oh just shut up!!!
I guess his Chinese buddies didn't want a kit car at a million dollars. Even they are smart enough to not spend that much on a kit car
Don't worry. Some stupid California tech nerd will give him too much for it.
Oh stfu! At the end of the day it's a drop in the bucket to him anyway so he's still winning you hating bastards..
John Cena run back to China .😂
A replica?
Jezus...
IT'S A REPLICA!

Yeah, he skould have taken the 400k.
My 57 Carrera replica is woth 60k on a good day, a real one is way over 600
No ones buying that ugly replica for 800k+
Walmart failed to sell 1 of its cans of bug spray yesterday, in other news...
Shouldve invested in muscle cars
Inexperienced collector, hard core car people know there's no money in replica cars. He was taken for a ride if he was told otherwise by the builder.
Even the bid of $400k is absurd for a replica of any classic regardless of what the initial fool paid. Another idiot with too much easy money.
why pay800k for a replica?
not a kit car but a HAND MADE replica

@@TyrannosaurusThunder do your homework kid. Flair won more titles than the fed tells you.
An original is over $5 million

He somehow got on the list for a Ford GT and soon as he got it he sold it.
These idiots in the entertainment industry can’t manage money and live beyond their means. It’s a replica car in the first place. You’re not selling that 💩 box.
if he thinks someone's gonna pay that for a replica, he's not to bright.
Neither are you.
*too
@@wileecoyote5749 what a strange way to admit you love cena's man meat choking you.
Fake blows to the head have consequences, apparently.
Ok how is this news though? 😂😂😂😂
John Cena obviously seeking sympathy
Nobody wants a $1m replica.
Welcome to the old car game John ! In this game sometimes you win but most of the time you end up taking a blood bath ! 😂😂😂

This dude has much to learn about cars! Don’t mess with replicas, period!
Fake car form a Fake guy
Whilst there is nothing wrong with collecting cars etc. Don’t ever collect with the assumption that you can make money off it one day.
$10 k for the car .. $790 k for the Cena connection
Ummm... no... clearly, some people have ZERO appreciation for the level of craftsmanship involved in creating a true "replica" .
It shows when you don't research and over pay ..
This is newsworthy? WHY?
How is this even news
Its a replica, so not everyone is willing to spend what he wanted on a fake. 😂
"Fake" implies a BAD replica... some replicas have incredible craftsmanship, attention to detail and level of authenticity. The price should reflect that... along with "the market".
I heard it was originally owned by Jon Voight.
😂
It was owned by John Voight
that pencils has Jon Voight's teeth impressions?
get me a dentist, NOW!!!
john cena bows down to dictators crying like a little girl
The housewives were getting restless, had to quickly dig up some celebrity news to keep them engaged.
Actually John Cena is not a retired WWE star.
Talk about being desperate for a story.
All American " news " unless it's to do with Australian politics.
Who ever got a 100% return on a build done by a shop ?
Maybe he should ask his CCP friends to help him.
Sell it by private negotiation for best price. Auctions only get the lowest price of the highest bidder.
It's a replica. Cena made a poor outright purchase of it for that price.
Mabey someone in China wants it
Who gives a flying fig 🤔🙄😡
You build a car and expect someone to pay the same money means you have no idea how car business works. Buy a normal new car from a dealership and try to get the same money for it. It’s not going to happen. John thinks the fact it is his car makes it valuable. Wrong!
Iam soooo sooolly chinese a rse lcking prck
"Arse Riking Plick."
Replica? Would not buy it for 100k.
car prices are crashing
And Sky considers this news…..At least it’s giving the polies a break from sinking the boot in.
Is it not negative enough for you aww poor little girl😂
If they did their job properly we would get bored.😂
@@randymarsh6679You’re probably the sort who brings a spoon to a rolling pin fight. 🤭🤭
@@Psittacine-pp5ydThe Inuits should deal with them by putting them on an iceberg and setting them adrift.
@@randymarsh6679 Lucy stop it.
I didn't realize it back then but I lost interest in the WWE around the time John Cena showed up.
Trump please hurry
It just needs painting like an original which were mostly 2 tone and an original is many millions of dollars and I think there is only 5 or 6 in the world
So for a hand built replica it’s pretty good value
Surely one of his chinese buddies would have bought it.
Don't care for Cena, a Chinese lover.
Replicas basically worthless in terms of investments 🤦♂️ & lucky he got that offer….
He only wanted RMB...
Its a replica .
And?
Watched the folks @ Texas metal build what little was left of the original car. Aka extensive.
Poor baby...
Who gaf? 💋
I will give you ten Yuan for it.
Maybe he took too many hits, when wrestling
Who cares
Classic car all new parts haha
Any questions?
Awwwww. Poor John.
POS Kit car
Haaa haaa. Serves him right
Thats what you get from greed too much money too much time on their hands.
Hey Sky News,,, we love you in the US but we hate John Cena FYI

That's great😂
