From Aero-News. Now, the one and only XP-82 is for sale. Only 25 hours since overhaul. Price? Well, as the old saying goes,
"If you have to ask then it's too much for you."

Hasn't it been up for sale before/for some time?
 
I think Tom Riely has been trying to sell it since at least 2020 after its restoration was completed and he loaned it to where its exhibited at present (and hasn't actually flown since 2020 pre-Covid). But then again, the asking price back then was like $12-13 million USD.
 
Heck. I understand there's a B-17E available in Texas. Twice the engines at half the price...and you can take a bunch of friends along with you.
 
Still remember seeing the P-82 parked on the ramp at Sheppard AFB in 1951 when in A & E school. They also had several C-125s, 3 engines like a Fokker.
