U.S. President Barack Obama’s 2005 Chrysler 300C, his old car, is on sale at eBay.com for about 5,000 % above its resale price.

Washington / NationalTurk – Or at least that is what Lisa Czibor, an experienced used car seller, claims.

Czibor is eager to prove in detail that the grey sedan, currently at 20,000 miles, was really owned by the U.S. President Obama by posting scanned photos of the vehicle and scanned images of the title deed, one showing “Barack H. Obama” as the lessee according to a report on Economywatch.com.

Barack Obama used a gas guzzling V-8 Hemi

Czibor told why Barack Obama sold the car on eBay : ” Mr Obama received a lot of negative media attention in Detroit and from auto makers regarding his gas guzzling V-8 Hemi. He drove this Chrysler 300C from 2004 through the summer of 2007. Over 19,000 miles [30,577 km] were put on this car before Obama traded it for a 2007 Ford Escape Hybrid.”

She added that Obama drove the when he was a senator from Illinois and that it was possible he “drove the car in Washington D.C. and back to Chicago in 2005 and 2006.”

A car of the same year and model would normally would be tagged with a price of $20,000, Economywatch.com reported and added that Czibor believed certain people may be interested in the ‘prominent’ vehicle.

Other famious prominent cars which are subject to lucrative deals

Iran’s Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s 1977 “ancient” white Peugeot sold for approximately $2.4 million at an auction last year, Czibor said, adding that Adolf Hitler’s convertible blue Mercedes went for $8 million, Pope John Paul II’s 1975 Ford Escort GL sold for $690,000 and the current Pope Benedict’s 1999 VW sold for $244,000 though “he probably never drove it as he did not have a driver’s license as a cardinal but he had a driver.”
