@@michealangel1556 the reality is that NO 2 HONDA CIVICS WILL EVER SELL FOR $1,000,000. And that's the truth. There are vehicles that cross auction blocks all the time that look weird, sound funny, handle like shit, can't get outta their own way, and ride like a hardtail chopper with a flat tire, and because for whatever reason they sell for big money. Saying these 2 Vectors will never be worth anything is a blatant lie because, well, they're worth $1 million to the guy who bought em, and possibly more to others who weren't involved in the bidding. The guy who bought this pair might have paid more if someone else had been bidding against him. Something is only worth what you can sell it for. These cars are worth million cuz they sold for a million. Now go play with your Civics while us adults talk about grown up stuff

Always loved the WX-3 look. Had a model of one when I was a kid and it was my favourite. I don't give a fuck if they are pieces of shit to drive or are not as fast as you think etc.. the outside look is what I love about them. They look like a million miles per hour and that's what I love about them.
Just about any "prototype" cars are a one of kind build for testing and any subsequent "production" builds will differ in a variety of ways.There can be many different make and model of cars in a "collection".
I do remember my childhood poster on my wall with the Green Vector Avtech WX3 ! Still have it today, it's my favorite car no matter what cars they will develop ! The Avtech WX3 is a masterpiece ! They would worth milions, trust me ! And i also remember this was and might be the fastest 0-60mph car in the world : 2.1seconds. I love the Avtech WX3, i'll choose this car over any other supercar in the world right now. Their design looks amazing, they look like they don't belong to our highways, like Fighter Jet's ! Well done sir Jerry Wiegert ! 👌
That's what I just was commenting about. The looks in the 90's for supercars and hypercard were soo unique. Each were different and uniquely distinct. They(Automotive companies) stuck mainly with their own ideas for their cars.
Augustin Fabre Vectors were the better cars though, having higher top speeds, more power and (even though it doesn't look like it) having a higher build quality than the Countach. Both are very iconic and beautiful imo.
Chiel Wouters there is like 20 years difference between the countach and the first vector. The vectors were also highly inspired by the countach... but with horrible proportions. Ask André Agassi what he thinks of the build quality of the vectors.. they are trash. Also vector used lambo engines at some point and couldn’t even pay for them.. they ended up paying lambo with finished cars. The countach was certainly not a good car, but it’s the icon of the 70s and 80s, in my opinion the most breathtaking design ever. I have always seen the vectors as the ugliest cars ever. With time, I don’t see them as ugly as I used to.. but it’s just the hype of obscure rare vintage cars going on right now. They probably deserve to be collectible, like a lot of weird rare cars from the past... I wouldn’t want a car just because it’s weird and rare, I’d rather have a car that takes my breath away like the countach does (they are also very rare)
LogicalSense lol I’m from 1980, that is hardly a baby boomer, and I definitely had countach posters in my bedroom as a kid (along with a testarossa and a diablo). If you buy one of these today it’s more for what they look like and what they represent, if you want a great car by today’s standards you buy a modern car. These vectors only represent bad taste and failiure and will never be driven because nothing can be replaced
Gerald had his vector w8 stolen from Audi-Volkswagen, then when those automakers knew that he knew, they sold it off to a museum in Germany so that Gerald wouldn’t know about it. He has told me he has been going to court about it but can’t seem to get them to act right.
The 90's Automotive scene was truly unique. Alot of cars had distinct styles unlike modern times where alot of cars seem to look the same. Bulky and what not. One thing that more common in today's cars is the technology but I still enjoy cars like this one and other like the Edonis, Chrysler ME-Four-Twelve, Bugatti EB110, Noble and other weird or unique cars that were well ahead of their times and precursors to today's ideas and technology.
Looks like a lot of money for a car but people are buying shitty Audi A8 for a $100000 and for 10 years that Audi will cost maybe $10000. A work of art like this Vector will always be worth a lot!
U guys should envy me because in the early '90's when I was into racing I'd go to Long Bch Grand Prix often. Well one time sat a Vector and the salesman let me sit in it! Pretty awesome car!
@@connoisseuroftigolbitts No it's not. You don't even know what you're talking about. You're confusing the M12 with the WX3. They aren't even made by the same people. Gerry Wiegert and the original Vector company built the WX3 with the same chevy engines used in the W8. The M12 was a car produced after the hostile takeover of the company, using diablo parts. It was not anywhere near the quality of the WX3. Wiegert used his copyrights to force Megatech into being incapable of producing the WX3.

@@ESPirits87 If you can afford half a million dollars to buy a supercar then I think maybe you can afford to have parts made for it. I doubt anybody would drive it everyday. It's definitely a weekend only only car.
@@theothistledon6935 Exactly what I was thinking. The one Doug DeMuro drove recently th-cam.com/video/3WEhsS9ybwk/w-d-xo.html , its owner had the original engineer make new wheels for his car. lol
If that's the only WX-3 coupe in the world, that had to have been the one I saw many years ago parked at the Petersen Museum parking lot. I remember I met the owner, but I didn't think it was Mr. Wiegert himself. Dang.
I read that he was trying to raise capital for his next hypercar project (still on the Vector website) and was offering a buyback on them once he was on his feet he obviously didn't want to part with them and unfortunately didn't live to see the new project through. Gotta give it to him, he was one resilient cat.
there are only four Vector W8s in Europe, only one is being offered for sale in Germany. This car, according to a recently renewed Los Angeles superior court ruling still legally belongs to Jerry Wiegert and was stolen by the Indonesians during the hostile takeover of Jerry Wiegert´s Vector Aeromotive Coporation. The car you´re offering for sale was sold by AUDI without papers and later received a very questionable title issued for Lamborghini in a tiny village in Kentucky with no link to Vector or Lamborghini whatsoever. I recommend any potential buyer to wait for the final judgement of a German court on the legality of the paperwork. Gerald Wiegert also owns the original MSO of this car. So any buyer of this Vector would have hard times to receive spare parts from Jerry Wiegert or sell the car in the USA in the future.
@@andreasfinger3343 and Mr Wiegert won the lawsuit in California over FIVE Vectors, including the car you offered. Jerry Wiegert still owns the MSO of that Vector in Germany and AUDI sold the car without papers even though they had exported this Vector with a very questionable document. Under US law you need the MSO to receive a title. How could AUDI obtain a title when the manufacturer Jerry Wiegert still owns the MSO?
@@vectorfiles No one "owns:" an MSO, and you don't need one to get a title. That's specific to each state, and not federal. The only time anyone needs an MSO is if you're in a specific state that requires it to register an off road vehicle.
These were very sad sales to me. Having following Vector Aromotive for a couple decades now.. The WX3 listed for 765000 new back when they were gonna be something...
Maybe if it wasn't priced soo high. That still high in today's economy. Maybe a price range of 100,000-200,000 would of fair better for this car. I really wish tuning companies would seek out cars like this and see what they can do like they have done with Vipers, Vettes, Ford GT's, Audi's, Ferraris, Porsche and even McLaren's are being tuned to see what potential those cars have hidden.
@@blackrob3058 That's actually really good to hear, so many things these days go un-cared for, and are left to just degrade away because it isn't 'Original' or cost-effective, sometimes spending an extra $10/€10/£10 on something is worth it from the stand point of simply allowing others to enjoy that item instead of just yourself, and you retain things for future people to use, and you reduce waste, it's a winning situation all-round
@@blackrob3058 Do you have his Instagram username, or perhaps a link to a blog or website that also covers the restoration process/information, it would be great to see what's been happening with them :)
These cars went for a bargain. If I were a billionaire, I would have paid afew million for them. I'd also have to have a W8 in my collection as well. The only car I found better looking & more desirable than the Lamborghini Countach 5000s in my childhood, & still feel that that is the case.
Anyone watching this needs to listen up and realize that the WX3 and the M12 are NOT THE SAME CARS, nor are the produced by the same people. The WX3 was quality. The M12 was a knockoff of the WX3 built with Diablo parts by Megatech after the hostile takeover of Vector. They are not the same cars. They weren't engineered by the same people. They weren't of the same quality or power. The WX3 was NOT the prototype of the M12.
Frankly, they just weren’t very good cars. To be honest, they were actually quite low-tech. A simple small block V-8, a 3-speed automatic gearbox, no true aerodynamics, in fact the only thing it really had going for it was that it started utilizing carbon fiber. Always more hype than substance. And if you happen to hear one run, it has the worst exhaust note! NO WAY was that car hitting 242mph!
Lol, ok edge lord. It had fighter jet instrumentation and a screen from an F18 Hornet, an automatic/manual adjustable rear spoiler, and gold contact switches. The 3 speed transmission was highly modified and originally used for motor homes and buses. It could do over 220 mph and go form 0 - 60 in under 4 seconds. The entire body is made out of kevlar and carbon fiber. Low tech my ass. For a 90's car, it's still got leading edge technology that will never see the inside of another car. The fact that it sounds like a well tuned V8 and not a shit box rice burner with a fart can is your problem.
Wrong. WX3 was still a vector, designed and built by Vector in California. It's the M12 that was a fake vector. Don't get the WX3 confused with the M12. M12 was the car produced with the lamborghini motor.

I would have bid 160....
I'd rather have the W8.
Those were nasty as well. Loved the super and hyper car scene of that time.
$555,000.00..that's a lot of dough.
Not when you see some of the other cars that collector owns.
Not when your daddy gives you a job at his private investment company
Frankly, they just weren’t very good cars. To be honest, they were actually quite low-tech. A simple small block V-8, a 3-speed automatic gearbox, no true aerodynamics, in fact the only thing it really had going for it was that it started utilizing carbon fiber. Always more hype than substance. And if you happen to hear one run, it has the worst exhaust note! NO WAY was that car hitting 242mph!
Haters gonna hate
Lol, ok edge lord. It had fighter jet instrumentation and a screen from an F18 Hornet, an automatic/manual adjustable rear spoiler, and gold contact switches. The 3 speed transmission was highly modified and originally used for motor homes and buses. It could do over 220 mph and go form 0 - 60 in under 4 seconds. The entire body is made out of kevlar and carbon fiber. Low tech my ass. For a 90's car, it's still got leading edge technology that will never see the inside of another car. The fact that it sounds like a well tuned V8 and not a shit box rice burner with a fart can is your problem.
Meanwhile, the worker guy sitting in the vector is thinking how to pay rent for the month.
And then they vanished.
The never ending man's quest to acquire more "stuff" continues.
This one still has the 3 speed automatic from a RV. Yikes.
Word has is, Doug Demuro purchased the second Vector
Stop spreading bullshit.
W8 is better
Better? I agree. Prettier? No way. I have lusted after the AWX-3 since the 90's.
auctioneer needs more practice!!
The fake vectors
Wrong. WX3 was still a vector, designed and built by Vector in California. It's the M12 that was a fake vector. Don't get the WX3 confused with the M12. M12 was the car produced with the lamborghini motor.
@@scythelord u r correct my bad
Its ugly
Stupid cars and even more stupid people for paying anywhere near that much for them. GM cars with 70s rv transmissions lol
Only the transmission casing is GM, all the internal parts and pieces were made with high quality materials in house at Vector Aeromotive.
Old crappy cars! Expensive and not start, need push! Hahhaahahahaahaa XD
hey dumbshit... the men are talking.... shut your clam... if you knew anything youd know running cars filled with gas are against some local regulations ... thanks for giving another example of how women run their cluesess mouths though
@@danialhowe9814 What primitve cars, still need gas! They are so ancient!
@@extrasupermorgen battery technology is over 200 years old and the enfgineers still have not figured out how build an electric car with a range for daily use. That electric technology os super ancient. BTW, where do you get the energy to charge your batteries?

@@extrasupermorgen battery technology is over 200 years old and still cannot deliver the performance, energy density and cleanliniess of modern ICEs. PLUS: our planet can simply not deliver the minerals required for building billions of batteries because these resources simply do not exist. This whole eco religion based on preaching electric energy is the biggest scam of the 21st century.
Ugly car
Horrible Auctioneer
this is not a nice car
