smugley Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 What's going on with prices ATM ? The red Canberra car above @$69k Shaved rear end , badly flared guards, tired engine bay , far from original and nothing really special about it ? The flared Silver car @$75k is full of rust , needing doglegs, rockers , floor's and once apart probably plenty more . The red 73 in Vic that started at $92k now $85k running Triples and Simmons . All the above to me seem ridiculously overpriced . I also think once Jobkeeper stops the market might get a bit busier !

CBR Jeff Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Its an interesting price trend at the moment. Wonder what the interior of the Canberra car looks like? Probably like the engine bay? Might give them a call and have a sticky beak? Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not Datsun or S30Z specific. I am tracking several cars on CarSales (thanks to the star icon you can save certain cars) - it's my little wish list. :). Anyway I get notifications daily of price moves. Majority of prices are being pushed up and not down, especially for 90s JDM stuff, but also early rotary and other Datsun's, Toyota's etc.. GTRs are out of control. The real problem I see is that you have the RBA talking of dropping rates further to 0.1% and more talk of QE, but even though the RBA denies it (like they denied the next move in rates was down), it's likely they will try negative interest rates as other places have done in the world. Despite the evidence suggesting it doesn't work, it won't stop them trying. When there is no return on your money in the bank, you funnel it into anything that provides a return, which could be vintage cars and other assets (deemed low risk). Of course you could argue this is the intention of such policies to encourage people to spend etc.. but I see it as a dead end and I have no idea where the madness ends. The only reason I'd sell any of my Toys at this stage would be to get the Mortgage paid off. As to when / if JobSeeker/Keeper ending will encourage more liquidity. It will be interesting, but I suspect people on JobSeeker were not buying Datsun's. Unless their name was Hayden of course.

260z blues Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I think with social distancing many people are picking up hobbies and interests they would not have had time for before and are seeking something to keep them sane. Craft and sewing shops have seen a huge serge in sales. Heck there was even a 8 week wait on lawnmower services in 5 of my local lawnmower repair centres when the corona virus peaked. gav240z 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDM-TOY Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 @260z blues I had the same issue with getting my blower repaired, took 6 weeks to get back and no stock on Honda lawn mowers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
