It's amazing what television, liquor and machismo does when combined. Add to that the announcers reading prepared texts about rarity and desirability of a particular model. Television cameras and bright lights can make a car look better than it really is according to some auction "drivers".Ssome even said that it was good that they were pushed on and off the auction block because the "cream puffs" had bad engine noises or smoked.
