You're apparently not driving it. So as an investment, you should consider your cost of ownership (maintenance and insurance) and base the decision on whether you feel there is additional appreciation in the market.

Not that you asked, but I've never been convinced of automobiles as a prudent investment, UNLESS, you have the means to store and maintain cars as a volume business. The value derived from my investment in cars comes predominantly from the driving pleasure. Simple "ownership" without use never made sense to me.

Sorry ... you can just ignore the editorial portion ;)

These cars will be the $1M auction cars at Barrett-Jackson in 10 yrs. Just depends on if you want to wait, or not.

but its an investment!

Sell your VOI9 car instead if you still have it. GTs should do well in the long-term.

I totally disagree. Way to much production. Way to much anticipation. I think the values will peak out over the next several years. Will be a collectible, but not at that level. IMO

Yesterday i received a phone call from local Nissan Dealer. He has someone
that is looking for a 96GTS. I have 8K on the odometer, original owner.
should i take the 50K he offered, (knowing he is going to flip). should i take it ?


Yesterday i was moving some vehicles & i had my 2008 ACR Hardcore on the Trailer.
While at the fuel station a guy walks up to me offers me 70K for my Hardcore with
6 miles on her. Should i take it ?

I agree,

I think Heritage cars will top out at 500K Regular cars at 300K.
