Bieber Car Winner Doubles Bid

Wednesday, 1 February 2012 08:36

A 54-year-old retired business man from London is the winner of the autographed Justin Bieber car. Heart FM's John Harada spoke with Allan Komenda today about his big win. Komenda put in a last minute bid for the signed 2012 Hyundai Genesis from the Stratford dealership. The winning bid was 40-thousand dollars, but Komenda has offered to double it to 80-thousand. He tells Heart FM about his plans for the vehicle. "I was going to use this as a catalyst to help out some of the other charities that I help out and open it up for other people too. Number two, it is a prestigious type of car and so I said well, you know what, I'm going to take a shot at it, and I did, and I got it." The money will be used to refurbish the skatepark in Stratford. The Owner of the Hyundai dealership that sold the signed 2012 Genesis, Frank Sandola says the promotion created a lot of buzz, but he expect to see more bids from the US. "What Allan's paid for the car is definitely what the car is worth with the signature as well. We can't forget there, this is for the skatepark for the kids and it's going to a good cause and Allan's just made it so much nicer."
