Nice car but I'm about $98,000 short. Wonder if she'd sell me jjust the driver's seat, been looking for a new hat.

No, but when it is for a charity event like that it might bring in quite a bit more than it is worth.

Nice car. It does not surprise me that she donated her car to a good cause. She seemed to be very nice when I met her about 10 years ago.

I spotted this one on a trailer a couple weeks ago that may be in your price range Dan.

i'm surprised that she would own a planet killing car like that- she's the genius that thinks that people should only use one single square of toilet paper to wipe because that would cut down on the number of trees we need to cut down.

It' s not the fact that Cheryl Crow owned it that makes it worth so much. It's the smattering of Lance Armstrong's DNA that brings in the big dollars.

I'm not gonna hate.

She's giving an expensive car away in order to raise money for tornado victims. Pretty noble if you ask me.
