Are RV-7's selling for over $300K?

[FasGlas]

Here's two RV-7's I've recently seen posted for sale, one for $300K and the other for $315K. Can they really be getting this kind of money? I have no idea who the sellers are and both planes are very nice, but?????

I don't know why you would buy a -7 for $300k when you can get into a -14 for that. If I had that kind of money to blow I would be building a shop, and then building my own airplane in that shop rather than buy someone else's dream airplane.

I think that is beyond dreaming! Someone is smoking something

I'm not sure what they sell for but I don't recall ever seeing a -7 listed for sale for over $200k. That doesn't mean much as I've never shopped for one. Just commenting on what I've seen for sale.

"Sellers", "Selling" "Listings" and "Asking" don't mean any more than "I have a Bridge in Brooklyn to Sell" I do not think there is any public way of knowing what any aircraft actually SOLD for, the FAA Bill of Sales normally are misleading too. EX: $1 dollar and other good and valuable considerations. There may be other reasons for asking so much but it does help increase the interest in RV7s.

I was offered just under $300k out of the blue for my recently completed -7A

Considering it's probably upwards of 200K just for the parts, 300k doesn't sound unrealistic.

Did you sell it , I thought one sold on here just recently for around $150K, taking Walt's point though with a full Garmin panel,I/O 360, fancy constant speed prop, custom paint job etc. I guess you would be getting up there .

a sale ain't thru unless 2 parties agree on a given price for a given.
Interestingly enough, one party is usually the seller, and even more unique in the cases mentioned by the OP would be the 2nd party, named buyer.
