My 2 cents but this is another huge factor. In the last six months, I've been priced out of two different purchases when flippers were able to get to them faster than me (obviously being on the other side of the world in Australia doesn't help) only to see them listed weeks later with a minimum 20K markup. Once a car goes up in price and sells at these inflated prices, I've noticed it's much less likely to ever come back down. Rinse and repeat with many cars across the market for a particular make and model and you end up with a hyper-inflated market. Additionally, factor in people looking at these inflated prices when considering selling their car and suddenly you've got a lot of people believing they have something worth more than realistically obtainable and unwilling to move on price... It's been a vicious circle lately... |

Good Lord!!! I know this car from back in 2005 before it changed hands several times and several auctions. That’s some coin for a basic 396/325hp. Glad I have mine
$97,000 |

Thankfully I'm content with what i own ! And I luckily purchased before this huge up swing on Muscle Car price's. My 70 RS Z/28 was purchased in 2010 & my 70 SS Chevelle in 2017. Recently I have had serious cash offers on both cars at more than double my original purchase prices ... That being said , I feel confident in saying that there is No Way i could even come close to replacing either car for what i could of sold them for ? Hard to find anything privately anymore ! Sadly these auctions & all the Muscle Car dealer/ brokers have priced most blue collar Motor Heads out of the market ?!?!
