Default Re: 4.3 mile '85 Iroc Camaro Found In Trailer

and to think all the experts, auctions ,magazines keep saying invest in high grade muscle cars, muscle cars appreciate in value...buy, buy, invest , invest.... ..
the reality is the values of most nice muscle cars barely keep up with new car inflation and 'there inflated' prices.

seems as only the true super cars or extremely rare, fresh high end restos (reproduction parts built, too) are actual Investment grade......
we love it though. ...Dealers love us for it or they wouldn't have nice cars to auction off to the investment vultures....

example: your car you built (restored) in 1990 for $25,000 was worth $30-$35,000 and today to build (restore) the same car, the same way , assuming mostly NOS stuff...the cost is 5 -10 times just in parts (nos) today and the cars are only worth 3-5 times those values........what gives ?

By the way..this IROC above is now the Benchmark for condition, pedigree, history, value .etc.. .. until a 88 350 TPI G92 T tops comes along with similar provenance......or a 1LE some famous race team moth balled.....
