A humble car driven by Barack Obama before he became US President is up for sale on a shopping website. The starting bid? A cool $1 million.
The 2005 grey Chrysler sedan in which Obama travelled to and from the state house in Illinois when he was a senator is up for auction on eBay.
The owner of the car is now offering the ultimate piece of Obama memorabilia on eBay, ABCNews reported.
The ad states 'Barack Obama owned driven car - 2005 Chrysler 300C 19k miles driven by Barack'.
A brand-new Chrysler 300c is available for $27,000. Normally a model of this age would resell for $14,446.
Lisa Czibor, who is managing the auction for a 'friend of a friend', told ABCNews.Com: 'How do you put a price on something like that?'

Obama leased the Chrysler 300C from 2004 until 2007, then traded it in for a hybrid vehicle.
"The guy who bought it found out it was Obama's car," Czibor said. "He put 1,600 miles on it and once Barack was elected president, he stopped driving it."
The listing has received a lot of clicks, but no interested buyers have emerged.
"There are other cars that have sold for large amounts of money," Czibor said.
She pointed to Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's 1977 white Peugeot, which sold for approximately $2.4 million at auction and Adolf Hitler's convertible blue Mercedes, which sold for $8 million.
The auction ends on February 1.
When Obama hits the road these days, he travels in an armoured presidential limousine nicknamed 'The Beast'.
The 18ft-long vehicle, a 2009 Cadillac, has 5inch-thick bullet-proof glass and is able to withstand chemical attack.
