An eBay auction for a gray 2005 Chrysler 300C leased by Obama before he became president closed late Wednesday with no bids meeting that minimum asking price, after which the listing agent hinted that $1 million might have been too much to expect.

I’d love to buy it and donate it to the “Mythbusters” so they could do something, well creative; in the name of science education of course.

I think Barry should do what Jesus would do with his old car.

Give it away for free or tear it down and redistribute the parts amongst the peeps. LOL

“Is it racist to notice that the 300C seems to be especially popular with Obama’s peeps? (That is, his black half).”

No, just further proof that FUBO isn’t really Black; it isn’t a Cadillac.
