Love the film Le Mans as much as the next person, but $800,000 for a set of overalls?

The world has gone truly mad :-\

Agreed, wholeheartedly, but I think the value of the suit is  boosted muchly 'cause it was McQueen's...not so much because it was from the movie... (as the last paragraph infers)

The price is over rated that is for sure. For this money you can buy a house or something valuable than this for sure. I'm just saying.
