Replicated 2012 Stingray Concept Corvette Auctioned off on eBay

With only 8 eBay bids, this baby just recently sold for $40,100. Reserves, however, have not been met yet.

Originally transformed from a 2008 Hertz rent-a-car Corvette ZHZ, this yellow 2012 Stingray Concept Corvette is now officially unavailable to bidders on eBay.

Z and M customs in Boise, Idaho replicated this ride to appear like Sideswipe from the movie, Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen. The concept vehicle comes with all custom panels (obvious), LED lighting system and custom exhaust, air in-take system. The six-speed automatic shifting and LS3 V8 engine allows her to purr up to 430 horsepower.

So, my friends, now we want to hear from you. Honestly, would you have paid $40,100 for this vehicle… Yes? No? Blog with us here.
