Meh; I'd take something I can actually drive on a daily basis like a Mustang, Corvette, Camaro, or even GT 40,

These cars will likely never see 5k miles on them. Most will probably never see 500 miles of drive time. Just some rich guy's trophy to be admired. Might as well put it under glass like a model car being protected from dust.

Exactly! I'd love to buy a few awesome resto-mods at Mecum or B-J. But I have no use for anything that's precious, anything that's so valuable you're afraid to drive it.

Here’s one doing 230 on the open road (legally):

Another hitting 246, again legally:

Additionally I’ve seen on in my home town just around the ‘go fast’ Idaho day.

Some folks drive ‘em.
