The new Cadillac Escalade-V costs $149,990, that is, during the short 15-minute trading, it has more than tripled in price. The SUV will be delivered to the buyer with a special plate VIN 001, and branded designer shoes will be added to it.
General Motors will send all the proceeds to charity – they will go to support the Detroit College of Business and Design, where students from poor and disadvantaged families study. In addition, the buyer of the Cadillac Escalade-V separately donated another $25,000 to the college.
