Default Interesting documentary on Discovery HD (HD Theatre)

Just saw a documentary on HD Theatre (previously Discovery HD) that I thought those on this forum may be interested in seeing:

The World's Most Expensive Cars

TV-G

Perhaps the rarest and most expensive car in history will be sold at auction in Paris. Collectors have it valued at 10 to 15 million dollars. The car, one of two remaining original Type D racing cars from Auto Union dating from 1939.


It's being reaired on Saturday morning at 4am and 8am so those with DVRs, it's probably worth a look.

So the world's most expensive car is an Audi. I'm sure Spoonie will say it's overpriced.

If this is the one that I saw it was really cool. But I don't want to ruin the ending for anyone.

Default spoiler alert

The car doesn't sell for 10 or 15 million. It gets pulled from the auction under speculation to it's authenticity, forcing the collectors that were interested to go buy BMWs.
