I wasn't expecting it, but toward the end they discussed the 240z (~26 mins in). Unfortunately a lot of Porsche "waffle" in between that really doesn't interest me.

 

You can see the market trend analytics tool here:

Interesting because graph shows a plateau for them.

However keep in mind this is the US market where they have LOTS of S30z's. Elsewhere in the world prices have changed already...

I went to the Manhattan Classic Car Club over Christmas and they have a 240Z they are doing up for the collection which is owned by the workshop controller.

 

 

Still not a patch on early 911s, when I was at Hampton Downs last week i came across a mint 930 Club Sport, one of some small amount made, which the owner had bought before they went nuts. Lucky Guy!

 

 

There was a 240Z race car that looked pretty serious too. So serious it broke the gearbox haha.

I bought my Charger for $1000 back in 2000 as a driver that needed work.

 

You now can't find a Charger for under $5k that doesn't need a full restoration.

 

I am now calling mine my superannuation fund, mainly because I have spent on it what most of lost in the GFC crash......

 

The way the Charger prices are going, whilst not stupid pre GFC, they are increasing steadily that if I ever need to sell it I won't do too bad.

Nissan 180 SX Type X.  .?

Toyota 'Takumi Tax' AE86

 

I don't think the North American market received either...

 

That's the problem with this kind of video though is it centers around a specific market. I understand it's not possible to cover every model, but on a global scale I think there is many cars that were missed out on.

 

I've never been fond on the Mitsubishi GTO, for me it's a bit of a fail whale. However it could turn out to be a big collector car, especially as a convertible? Only time will tell what the market lusts for.

What will be the hard bit is keeping the recent potential collectibles, in an un-molested state!

 

There is a lot more opportunity to enhance/mdify/upgrade , today, and in such a way almost destroy the originality, than say, cars of the early 70's r 60's.

Those older cars were not as modified from original.

That and the facy that build quality on new cars is lacking, along with the proliferatipn f the "its broken, take it to the wreckers" attitude, with modern cars.

 

Then again what/when is "modern"?
