Well purple is my favorite color, but I wouldn't pay that much for it. I really don't need any more sewing machines, and can only use one at a time, lol. I already have 9 and that's plenty, I don't have room for any more. I have seen the FW's painted in purple and love their purple color, but I wouldn't spend the money they are priced a just for the color. I have two blacks 1935 and 193 and they work fine. Currently piecing a wedding quilt on the 1937. The color doesn't matter that much to me.

Ridiculous price! But it is beautiful, like a new car. Someone with more money than sense will surely buy it.
It gets my goat when people call the 301 the "featherweight's big sister". Bah. It's got a potted, gear driven motor which makes it way stronger than any featherweight... and it's Slant-O-Matic! The only similarity with the featherweight is the bobbin and case, and the lift up bed.
Love my 301s!

I can just picture someone a hundred years from now thinking, "Yeah, my great grandmother sure had more money than sense..."
And some historian saying there was a refurbishment of sewing machines during our era which resulted in these unique colors...

It's a bargain compared to this one. (Although, this one does come with a table)
