Default Re: Yenko Nova

So many of the original Z-28's were raced, wrecked, blown up and junked that the REAL cars are few and far between. I also believe the price of parts will continue to rise as the cost of labor to mfg. the parts rises. The reality is that 50k is not much money for a car. If you consider the folks buying can afford to buy what they like, why buy a new Vette, Mustang, etc. for 45-50k that will depreciate when you can have a nice muscle car that will appreciate for the forseeable future? Classic example; I bought a new SL 500 Mercedes in 1998 and paid about 80k. It sits in my garage with 53k miles. Its worth about 29k. Later I bought a numbers matching 69 Z-28 fully documented with REAL pop and 31,000 original documented miles. Needless to say I paid much less for the Z, and you don't have to guess that 29k would buy about 1/3 of it now. Needless to say I've bought my last new Benz. My wife on the other hand.....
