Default Re: Motion on ebay

i guess this is what makes markets...

I think a car ordered new with Motion modifications is worth a real premium over a catalog car (do-it-yourself) or one that received modifications by Motion at a later stage in life.

Is the car a survivor? newly restored? older/poor restoration
Is the exterior and paint radical or subtle?
Do you prefer sports cars or muscle cars?

I think its clear that the more radical drivetrain modified cars that joel built will carry higher values and documentation/history will clearly impact value.

BM has gained more recognition in the last several years due to Marty's book, articles in the NY Times, and repeated collaboration and representation at the MCACN. Despite a softer market, the last BM that sold to my knowledge was the survivor 68 camaro...the value was well deserved and impressive. Both buyer and seller should be happy.

Some of the cars mentioned in this thread may not be the best examples or indicative of value. As charlie mentioned, few cars have traded publically thru auction and those arent necessarily the best examples of their kind.
